Armonia Collection
The vases in the Armonia collection are entirely hand-crafted and hand-assembled. They feature sweet, soft, harmonious lines, conceived through that faculty we call ‘vision’, as I first see the object, completed in every shape and detail, in my mind’s eye. ‘Vision’ then enjoys the satisfaction of its transformation into the tangible.
In this collection, as with the others, precious exotic woods such as wenge, zebrawood, pau rosa, violet, rosewood and ebony prevail. European woods, such as cedar and maple, which provide the extreme whiteness that contrasts so splendidly with the very dark woods, are used sparingly.
With the same thoughtfulness with which one might embrace a woman, touching these creations yields silk-like sensations and draws out an ecstatic pleasure.
The name of each vase, decided as it is conceived, is the outcome of the inspiration that fills me.
