About this seller
Private sellerProduct description
This is the iconic Red White Vase, designed by the renowned Dutch designer Hella Jongerius. This vase is a true modern classic that playfully explores the boundary between historical craftsmanship and contemporary industry. Its recognizable silhouette and bold color blocks make it a sought-after object among collectors of Dutch design.
The vase is crafted from ceramic and cast in molds based on restored medieval pots. What makes this design so special are the intentionally visible casting seams and the traditional fingerprint of the potter in the neck. Because bright red ceramic glaze in 1997 contained toxic cadmium, Jongerius opted for an unconventional solution: the red surface is finished with industrial automotive paint. This contrast between rough ceramic and sleek lacquer gives the piece its unique tension.
The object is in excellent condition, allowing the original finish and the characteristic, intentional imperfections of the design to be fully appreciated. The work of Hella Jongerius is included in various museum collections worldwide, and this piece exudes that same museum-quality quality. This vase forms a strong visual element in your living space. It comes into its own on a minimalist side table or as a striking centerpiece in an open shelving unit, where the bright red and white immediately draw attention.
