Organic tabletop forms

Designed to be organic and have personalities when they sit on a table top, our Ripple vases capture and reflect the natural rhythms of the shapes in our Ripple tableware collection.

I wanted them to feel like they were made through a natural process- like driftwood getting worn down on the beach over years at sea, and or pebbles rolling around the bottom of a mountain stream. I grew up on the beach in Florida, and my friends and I would spend many hot summer days walking around on the beach and seeing what a storm had washed up- these bits of detritus changed from their journeys and exposure to the forces of time and tide.

I have played with the vase format several times over the years, but this is the first time that I have really had the chance to dive deep and really develop a group. We have been so tableware focused over the past 5 years with our work in the restaurant industry, that anything outside of that format has been put on a simmer on the back burner.

These vases are different from many vases out on the market- they are sculptural in form but still highly functional as vases. Depending on the angle and the light that you view these from, they change dynamically and offer surprises, I find myself seeing new silhouettes even after months of looking at these.
