HARIONA VASE

Designed by Martina Taranto 

Hariona translates the soul of the plant into a physical presence.

With its spiky yet delicate edges, the object evokes the nature of the prickly pear, an exotic cactus that gives thorny but colourful and juicy fruits.

The vase is entirely made of wood fibres and coloured with natural pigments: the result is a purple shaded with unpredictable nuances, capable of materialising the magic hidden in the cosmic soul of JCP Universe.
