“In my first class at the University of Arts, Crafts and Design, we were going to blow glass in a mold. I was going to make a drinking glass, but instead of cutting off the cap, I decided to leave it on. It was beautiful, wonderful and inviting. And it also provided some contrast to the understated shape. I developed the idea further with an oversized cap. It’s a matter of course to work with circular raw materials these days. That’s why the vase is produced using excess glass from the glassworks. The result is a contemporary design object, where my intention has been to leave a mark on the present.”
