Raphaël Zweidler - Wood and concrete Ikebana vase 10 cm tall Raphaël Zweidler This item is only available for purchase online. Since it is handmade upon request, please allow for a period of approximately 2 weeks before it is shipped. This delay can slightly vary depending on exceptional circumstances such as vacations or holidays. Multidisciplinary artist Raphaël Zweidler calls himself a "matieralist": building on years of experience in construction, architecture and visual arts, he explores and redefines materials such as concrete, wood and metal, playing with their lines, textures and functions. These common construction materials acquire an unexpected lightness through ikebana-the ancient art of flower arranging that is still practised in Japan. Originally created for the 2021 Fabrique 1840 award, on the theme of revival, this vase acts as a focal point for your decor and engages in a thoughtful dialogue with the flowers, buds and branches you display within it throughout the seasons. Black walnut, concrete and copper Designed for indoor use only Handmade in Sherbrooke Each piece is unique and may vary slightly from the photo 8.25" x 4" x 2.5" (21 x 10 x 6.5 cm)
