101 Copenhagen Sumo Vase: A Bold Celebration of Shape and Artistry
With a design inspired by the robust grace of sumo wrestlers, the 101 Copenhagen Sumo Vase stands as a celebration of human form and artistic abstraction. The Sumo vase series, generous in volume and grandeur, perches confidently on slender, pointed legs, reminiscent of the grounded poise of its namesake athletes.
Each vase in the Sumo collection offers a unique play of openings. From the classic slender necks to innovative double apertures and deeply carved hollows, they present a variety of design experiments that challenge and expand our typical notions of vase architecture. This transformative approach crafts a juxtaposition between time-honored vase silhouettes and imaginative, artistic detailing, inviting one to question and marvel at the very essence of vase design.
While each Sumo vase is an art piece in its own right, their collective presence forms a cohesive family, exuding unity in diversity. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the hand-glazing process imbues each vase with its individual character and charm. These slight variances in hue serve as a testament to their handcrafted heritage. To ensure the vase's practical utility, a specially crafted bag accompanies it, ensuring it is ready to hold fresh flowers.
Designed with the visionary prowess of Kristian Sofus Hansen & Tommy Hyldahl, the Sumo Vase invites you to a world where tradition and abstract art dance in harmonious rhythm. Experience this mesmerizing blend of culture, art, and design with 101 Copenhagen's masterpiece.
