The Press large vase features heavyweight pressed glass construction with a distinctly grooved, chunky form. Crafted from thick industrially pressed glass, it is produced by dropping molten glass heated to 1,200 degrees centigrade into iron moulds, resulting in a satisfyingly curvy silhouette. The dense glass walls give the piece a bold, solid presence while maintaining a simple, functional shape.
