Product description
A ceramic vase designed by Gijs Bakker for the Dutch producer Cor Unum. This piece, known as the 'Duet' vase from 1993, is an iconic example of postmodern Dutch Design.
The vase consists of two separate parts: a conical, dark blue inner vase and a perforated, white outer shell. This outer layer, with its pattern of circular openings, functions as a grid for arranging flowers, giving each stem its own space. The design was manufactured in the Netherlands and showcases the craftsmanship of Cor Unum, a company known for its collaborations with leading designers.
In excellent condition, this example shows the original glossy finish on both components. The colors are bright and the ceramic is free from visible damage, reflecting its careful preservation over the years. The underside of the blue vase features the authentic Cor Unum mark.
The 'Duet' vase is not only a functional object but also a sculptural work of art that makes a statement in any interior. It fits well in both a minimalist and an eclectic environment and can serve as a central decorative element on a table, dresser, or in a display cabinet.
