The Ball Body Vase offers distinctive character with its mouth-blown glass construction and bulbous form. Its cracked surface pattern results from a specialized process of temperature shock treatment, creating unique textural appeal. The compact design accommodates various display options, and the reinforced glass structure provides durability through traditional crafting methods.
Produced via a process that sees glass fully mouth-blown into a wooden mold, Polspotten's 'Ball Body' vases presents a compelling vision. Delicate and strong at once, the bulbous vessel is defined by a series of cracks along its surface, the result of the vase being plunged into ice cold water immediately after being blown, then placed again into an oven to cement its strength in a technique drawn from a Chinese craftsman. The result is a family of colorful pieces that includes this small green vase that can be displayed empty or filled with blooms for equal impact.
