Responsibly Handcrafted Yellow Stone & Glass Vase by COKI
About the Item
A handcrafted vase with borosilicate glass and yellow stone was sustainably made using Tuscan and Venetian rocks. Inspired by "Cochleae" snails, the vase features two distinct materials not joined together, making it a unique design. Each piece is handmade and characterized by an irregular surface with holes, gouges, or jagged edges, featuring an organic and distinctive appearance.
The Cochleae vases collection is inspired by snails' life cycles. The design captures their growth, with the curved glass representing the invertebrate's body and the semicircular stone components symbolizing the embracing shell.
The stone, a testament to our commitment to sustainability, is meticulously handcrafted from fragments of natural Italian rocks sourced from Tuscany and Veneto. This innovative material, inspired by ancient Roman techniques, is truly one-of-a-kind as it does not contain glue or cement. It is dried naturally in the open air, under the sun, to ensure ever greater environmental sustainability.
The surface of the handcrafted stone piece is treated with an ecological substance developed by COKI.
The glass and stone components are not glued and can be separated, disassembled, and ready for new uses.
The stone's color becomes brighter and clearer within 2-3 months due to the natural absorption process of the surface treatment, which is based on ancient techniques of the artisan tradition.

COKI
With her eponymous housewares label, Italian product and architecture designer Coki Barbieri brings to life a new approach to natural materials through forms inspired by rationalist architecture and the morphologies of animal and plant kingdoms. The studio and design laboratory is located on the first hills of Rimini, overlooking the Adriatic Sea and surrounded by thick spontaneous vegetation, in which every little creature of the area is a constant source of inspiration. The geometries and connections between the elements are first designed with cardboard and cork prototypes, then defined with hand drawings and digitally. Handicraft production aims to recover local raw materials and preserve ancient working stone, glass, and metal methods. Combining notions of geology, chemistry, and design culture, COKI also offers new materials, starting from fragments and scraps of stone and mineral processing. Together with the craftsmen, Coki has developed a waste-free production and logistics chain. The production cycle exploits the sun and air's power to create many components of the projects, thus offsetting a part of the CO2 emissions due to borosilicate glass and stainless steel processing. In 2020 the brand won the Green Product Award and was internationally recognized for its sustainable and ethical approach to product design.
You can choose the same vase in grey, orange, or pink.
