A vase that understands the weight of what it holds. Tall, composed, and quietly commanding, this piece is among the most architecturally considered in Carme Balada's series — a form that earns its place in a room before a single stem is placed inside it.

The glaze, warm and earthy in tone, moves across the surface with the controlled freedom of a process that cannot be entirely predicted. The exterior carries the memory of the wheel — subtle horizontal striations that ground the piece in its material origins and catch the light differently depending on where you stand.

A considered vase for a considered interior. Works with a single branch of dried botanicals, a stem of seasonal blossom, or nothing at all.

Because every piece is made and glazed by hand, surface colour and texture will vary slightly between firings. What arrives is singular — a record of one specific moment in the kiln.
