Unlimited edition

I have just seen those vessels at Fumi Gallery and I have been really impressed by their sinuous shape and simplicity of manifacturing.

“We designed various templates that we place into an extrusion machine. Thus, the machine extrudes endless tubes of clay. Because of the speed and flexibility of the clay, the tubes force themselves in maximum and almost impossible conditions and shapes. We cut the tubes of the extrusion-machine and place them onto a drying table. Because we have researched the quality and max-deformation of this clay, we have managed to develop a new product that is always unique but can be mass-produced: an Unlimited Edition.”
Designers: Pieke Bergmans & Madieke Fleuren

Mightybearcats L1060362 01 Bud Vases

Flexible and soft hand formed vessels by The Mighty Bearcats

“The skin series vases are made of a heat sensitive plastic that when in contact with temperatures above 250 degrees will shrink in size. At first glance the vases appear to be made of a thin fragile porcelain, however once the vase is picked up it’s found to be soft and flexible.”
