DETAIL
ARTS AND MATERIALS
The Cadence vase has been entirely handmade in a traditional factory in Tuscany where ceramic know-how has been passed on since 1921. First, each piece is turned by hand. Then, the exterior is painted and the craftsman comes to meticulously engrave the patterns on the surface with a specific tool using the Spolvero technique. Thus, the design comes to life on the material.
Then, the interior of the vase is painted and a first firing is done before applying a matte finish and a glossy varnish to obtain a contrast between the interior and exterior. Finally, a second firing ensures that the colors are well fixed. This unique piece coordinates perfectly with the other pieces in the La Musique collection, allowing you to combine them as you wish.
INSPIRATION
The Cadence vase is inspired by the painting La Musique by Henri Matisse (1939). Designed by the Maison Matisse studio, it completes the La Musique collection first developed in collaboration with Marta Bakowski. The aesthetics of this vase is a play between full forms and straight lines, cut to the point, echoing the painting.
One recognizes the roundness of the forms there but also, in contrast, the detail of the base of the meridian. These pure forms married to the bold and surprising colors taken from the work of the painter, evoke the joy of living and optimism. The Cadence vase is only waiting to be filled with a generous bouquet to bring cheerfulness and optimism to your home.
