The corrugate vase is a captivating fusion of ancestral techniques and contemporary artistry. Inspired by the skilled hands of indigenous potters from the American Southwest, this masterpiece pays homage to their tradition while embracing modern design sensibilities.

Crafted using a method reminiscent of time-honored coil pinching, the vase boasts an undulating surface that ripples like desert dunes under the sun's caress.

Standing at approximately 7 3/4 inches in height and 7.5 inches in width, this vase commands attention without overwhelming its surroundings. Its proportions strike a harmonious balance between statement and subtlety. The neck of the vase gracefully opens to reveal an inviting 3.5-inch-wide opening, beckoning you to grace it with your most cherished blooms, whether they be wild desert blooms or carefully cultivated blossoms.
