India Large

HANDBLOWN GLASS, CZECHIA/ HANDSPUN METAL, UK / HANDTURNED WOOD, FINLAND
 

A sumptuous delight in colour, scale, and material radiance, India Large stands as one of our most striking and luxurious Stacking Vessels. Designed to captivate, it makes an unforgettable art investment or a treasured gift for significant occasions.

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, each India Large vessel is composed of three handcrafted elements: a blown glass vase, a spun metal bowl, and a turned wooden bowl. These parts come together in a bold sculptural form that can also be disassembled for versatile, functional use.

Majestic in presence yet refined in detail, India Large is a celebration of contemporary craft, making it a standout piece for collectors, design lovers, and anyone drawn to meaningful, artisan-made objects.
