The Anemone Vase Trio – Porcelain in Bloom by Rosemonde Nairac for Rosenthal Studio-Linie
A rare and refined sculptural ensemble from the 1970s: this curated trio of porcelain vases belongs to the celebrated Anemone series by French designer Rosemonde Nairac, crafted for the visionary Rosenthal Studio-Linie.
Each vase is cast in matt white bisque porcelain, Rosenthal’s patented Porcelaine Blanche, known for its velvety surface and fine sculptural detail. The vases vary in height (22 cm, 18.5 cm, 15 cm), creating a harmonious rhythm of form—perfect for display as a vertical still life or as individual statements of botanical minimalism.
The Anemone relief—abstracted, undulating, delicately geometric—wraps each form like a floral skin. Nairac’s textured motif evokes petals, sea coral, or topographic maps, situating these vases between nature-inspired abstraction and Op Art tactility. The contrast between vertical fluting and rounded relief invites both light and hand to wander.
A Modernist Florilegium
Designed during Rosenthal’s golden design decade, this series reflects the studio’s embrace of sculptural artistry. Nairac’s choice of the anemone—a flower associated with hope, delicacy, and renewal—infuses the set with symbolic grace, while the rhythmic repetition of its form channels a serene, modernist ethos.
