About the Item

This porcelain vase where the powerful forms of nature meet Nordic minimalism. The jagged, tooth-like edge evokes imagery of ice formations, shark teeth, or dramatic natural landscapes – a tribute to Wirkkala’s fascination with raw, organic shapes. Despite its striking form, the design remains balanced, light, and timelessly elegant.
