Hand sculpted by Derek from hebel (an aerated concrete), this organic shaped vase embodies a healthy blend of hot Lava, Burnt Earth and Deep Turquoise blended together with a dynamic flow. Compact and grounded, it comes complete with a test-tube to hold either a single stem or small collection of flowers from the garden, or even a dried flower stem.

Derek hand sculpts each piece in our studio in Buderim from a block of hebel with manual tools like rasps and chisels and then carefully drills the hollow in the hebel for the test tube well. The piece then has to be hand sanded to smooth out any imperfections or tool marks. Following that he uses a colour marbling technique to colour each piece with a breath-taking pattern of colours and patterns.

This piece works beautifully as a dry vase, tabletop object, or standalone sculptural accent. A tactile, earthy piece that brings understated texture and colour to shelves, sideboards, or outdoor settings.

This vase includes the clear acrylic test tube.
