Inspired by the silhouette of snails, this piece is crafted from meticulously handcrafted borosilicate glass and stone, reflecting COKI's commitment to sustainable design. The stone, created in the workshop, is made from fragments of natural Italian rocks and Siena (Tuscany) clay. This innovative material, inspired by ancient Roman techniques, is produced without glue or cement and is slowly dried after being shaped to follow the curve of the glass.
The vase consists of three separate pieces that are not permanently connected. Each piece of glass is handmade and possesses unique characteristics. The stone features an irregular surface with holes, gouges, and jagged edges, giving it a distinctive, organic appearance. Over time, the stone will lighten slightly as it absorbs the natural surface treatment, becoming brighter and more vibrant.
