The decorative vase presents artistic form with functional appeal, showcasing intricate sculptural details throughout its design. Its clay construction ensures lasting durability, while the transparent matte glaze on both interior and base provides a sophisticated finish. The feminine figure features carefully crafted elements including expressive hands and detailed clothing accents that create visual depth. The beige tone delivers understated elegance with substantial presence in its larger proportions.
Taken from Marie Michielssen's 'Les Femmes' series for Serax, one of many collection produced in collaboration with the Belgian brand, this vase presents a compelling contrast. Characterized by an intriguing softness, as witnessed in small details such as decorative elements on the figure's clothing and headwear, the feminine form also offers a inherent strength, which Michielssen says runs through the entire collection. The hands and eyes, too, play a central and familiar role in the image of this character, further emphasizing a mood of humanity and kindness. The result is a clay vessel that is equal parts muted and impactful — this large, wide version, 'Les Femmes 02', is presented in beige and has a transparent matte glaze applied to both the interior and base.
