We fell in love with this vase at a studio visit to ANALOG, a Berlin-based glass company that blends high-tech tools with handblown glass. Each OMAM vase follows the same form and size (16-18cm wide and 29-32cm tall) and each celebrates its uniqueness resulting from its hand-blown production. As the name suggests the company recommends that it’s best used for dry arrangements, simply because cleaning can, depending on its particular nooks and crannies, require a bit more effort. Available in multiple colors.
