Molten Glass Vase On Whitewash Wood, Small

• The glass stands upright from the wood, tapering into a tall, open vessel with a softly uneven rim.
• Aqua-tinted glass gathers thickly at the base, catching light in ripples and rounded edges.
• The whitewashed wood keeps its natural knots, hollows and irregular line, so the base feels found rather than polished flat.
• It works as a sculptural vase for a single stem, a small dried arrangement, or simply as an object left empty.
• Small bubbles, light scratches and slight asymmetry are part of the handmade glass character.

Crafted by hand in Bali, the recycled glass is blown while hot, then rested over a piece of Gamal root so it cools into the wood’s natural shape. Each base guides the glass differently, which means every piece in the Molten Glass on Wood range has its own balance, footprint and flow.

Place it where the glass can catch natural light: a windowsill, sideboard, mantel or low table. The contrast works best with a little space around it, rather than crowded among other objects.

Wipe the glass gently with a soft cloth and keep the wood away from prolonged damp. If using fresh stems, test carefully with water first and place the vase on a protected surface.

Gamal wood is used here not as a hidden support, but as part of the design. Its pale, weathered-looking surface gives the piece the feeling of found natural form, while the glass brings clarity and shine. The pairing sits close to the spirit of wabi-sabi: beauty in irregular edges, visible process and the small differences that make an object feel alive. In a minimal arrangement, it also echoes the quiet discipline of ikebana, where space and stem matter as much as the vessel itself.

• Material: recycled glass and Balinese Gamal wood.
• Origin: Indonesia.
• Weight: 1250 g.
• Each piece is individually shaped, so the wood form and glass fit will vary.

A thoughtful choice for someone who likes sculptural home décor, handmade glass, natural materials and objects with visible character. It suits housewarmings, new studios, creative workspaces and slow, considered interiors.
