The decorative vase combines artistic form with functional design, featuring intricate details that create visual interest. Its clay construction provides durability, while the transparent matte glaze applied to both interior and base adds a refined finish. The feminine silhouette offers inherent strength through its sculptural elements, with carefully crafted hands and expressive features that emphasize character. The beige coloring creates a muted yet impactful presence that complements various decor styles.
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 small, wide version, 'Les Femmes 02', is presented in beige and has a transparent matte glaze applied to both the interior and base.
