Concept
Philippe Bestenheider puts his name to a collection of fine, elegant vases for Driade. A tall vase, a medium vase and a table centre cup, with sophisticated matt white, matt black and gold finishes.
“The shape of the GEAR vases is a play on geometry, based on the shape of gears.
The same gear shape crosses vertically and horizontally, to create the three-dimensional surface of these vases. Put together, these containers mesh perfectly, like the gears in a mechanism”.
Porcelain vases in four versions:
1- matt white outside and glossy white inside 2- matt black outside and glossy black inside 3- matt blue outside and glossy red inside
4- glossy gold outside and glossy black inside.
