A sculptural pop for your plants.
The Lichen Seed vases add a touch of playfulness to your space. Fill them with water and style with unique fresh leaves, small trailing greens or nothing at all! They look great as a standalone sculpture to decorate a small wall space, or style them as an accessory to the other pieces of the collection.
The Lichen Seed vase is coated with our signature crackle glaze, a lusciously tactile surface. Variances in the design will occur due to the handmade nature of the glaze.
The interior of this vase is sealed with a clear glaze to ensure water tightness.
Mount to the wall with one small nail (no wall stud required as they are lightweight), or use velcro strips if holes in the wall are not an option.

The Magic of Slip Casting
Slip casting is an exciting way to make ceramics as it allows you to produce complex shapes that wouldn't be possible using the wheel. It is an entirely different way to how we normally produce ceramics.
We have designed our own models (some with clay and some with 3D printing technology) and created our own molds from scratch.
This new method consists of pouring a liquid clay (slip) into our plaster molds. As plaster is inherently absorbent, the clay forms a shell inside the mold’s walls. Once a desired thickness of clay shell has been reached, the excess slip can be poured out. After ~60 minutes, once the cast has sufficiently hardened, it can be taken out of the mold. Our laborious seaming process consists of using an array of fine point blades, delicate sponges and ribs to achieve our high level finish.
