Narcissus Vases With Mirror Lenses Around The Plant

<div style="text-align: justify;"> Polish design duo New Craft has created a collection of hand-blown glass vessels with copper “collars” that provide a reflection of the plants inside. It references the Greek myth about Narcissus, who fell in love with his own reflection in a pool of water and also gives his name to a type of flower. The vases are made by glassblowers, using wooden molds and a traditional coloring method in which finely ground colored glass is added to the molten glass bulb. The mirror lens around the plant appropriates the image of its surroundings and makes the plant observe its own reflection. Narcissus represents nature as delicate and requiring protection, but also as selfish and egotistic. </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div class="gallery gallery1"> <div class="object" id="galleryItem1" style="text-align: center;"> <div class="gallery-icon"> <img alt="" height="420" id="curGalleryItem" src="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/narcissus-vases-with-mirror-lenses-around-the-plant-3-554x420.jpg" width="554" /></div> <br /></div> <div class="object" id="galleryItem2" style="text-align: center;"> <div class="gallery-icon"> <img alt="" height="395" id="curGalleryItem" src="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/narcissus-vases-with-mirror-lenses-around-the-plant-1-554x395.jpg" width="554" /></div> </div> <div class="object" id="galleryItem3" style="text-align: center;"> <div class="gallery-icon"> <img alt="" height="480" id="curGalleryItem" src="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/narcissus-vases-with-mirror-lenses-around-the-plant-2.jpg" width="480" /></div> <br /></div> <div class="object" id="galleryItem4" style="text-align: center;"> <div class="gallery-icon"> <img alt="" height="523" id="curGalleryItem" src="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/narcissus-vases-with-mirror-lenses-around-the-plant-4.jpg" width="480" /></div> <br /></div> <div class="object" id="galleryItem5" style="text-align: center;"> <div class="gallery-icon"> <img alt="" height="509" id="curGalleryItem" src="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/narcissus-vases-with-mirror-lenses-around-the-plant-5.jpg" width="480" /></div> <br /></div> <div class="object" id="galleryItem6" style="text-align: center;"> <div class="gallery-icon"> <img alt="" height="369" id="curGalleryItem" src="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/narcissus-vases-with-mirror-lenses-around-the-plant-7-554x369.jpg" width="554" /></div> <br /></div> <div class="object" id="galleryItem7" style="text-align: center;"> <div class="gallery-icon"> <img alt="" height="559" id="curGalleryItem" src="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/narcissus-vases-with-mirror-lenses-around-the-plant-8.jpg" width="480" /></div> <br /></div> <div class="object" id="galleryItem8"> <div class="gallery-icon" style="text-align: center;"> <img alt="" height="369" id="curGalleryItem" src="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/narcissus-vases-with-mirror-lenses-around-the-plant-9-554x369.jpg" width="554" /></div> <br /></div> </div> <div class="reference"> <b>Source</b>: <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="nofollow">dezeen</a>, <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" rel="nofollow">nowerzemioslo</a></div>

Multifacet Object Collection For Displaying Different Items

<div style="text-align: justify;"> French designer Matali Crasset has paired concrete and metal to create four faceted objects, each for displaying different items. The Multifacet collection for French brand Concrete LCDA includes a champagne bucket, a candle holder, a <a href="http://www.shelterness.com/35-the-most-cool-diy-planters-and-vases-of-2014/">vase</a> and a two-tiered display case. Each design has the same standard fibre-reinforced concrete form, comprising an octagonal base and angled sides that create a partially enclosed space. Three of the sides are removed so that whatever is inside can be displayed. For the ice bucket, the missing sections are replaced by a mirror-polished pewter container that fits snuggly within the concrete shell. The <a href="http://www.shelterness.com/11-pretty-valentines-day-candleholders-and-votives/">candleholder</a> has a small circular section raised slightly from the centre of the base to catch dripping wax. Brass is used to form a cylinder for holding small flowers within the same concrete shape. </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div class="gallery gallery1" style="text-align: center;"> <div class="object" id="galleryItem1"> <div class="gallery-icon"> <a class="cboxElement" href="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/multifacet-object-collection-for-displaying-different-objects-1.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img alt="" height="480" id="curGalleryItem" src="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/multifacet-object-collection-for-displaying-different-objects-1.jpg" width="480" /></a></div> <br /></div> <div class="object" id="galleryItem2"> <div class="gallery-icon"> <a class="cboxElement" href="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/multifacet-object-collection-for-displaying-different-objects-2.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img alt="" height="480" id="curGalleryItem" src="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/multifacet-object-collection-for-displaying-different-objects-2.jpg" width="480" /></a></div> <span id="more-82582"></span><br /> </div> <div class="object" id="galleryItem3"> <div class="gallery-icon"> <a class="cboxElement" href="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/multifacet-object-collection-for-displaying-different-objects-3.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img alt="" height="480" id="curGalleryItem" src="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/multifacet-object-collection-for-displaying-different-objects-3.jpg" width="480" /></a></div> <br /></div> <div class="object" id="galleryItem4"> <div class="gallery-icon"> <a class="cboxElement" href="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/multifacet-object-collection-for-displaying-different-objects-4.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img alt="" height="480" id="curGalleryItem" src="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/multifacet-object-collection-for-displaying-different-objects-4.jpg" width="480" /></a></div> <br /></div> <div class="object" id="galleryItem5"> <div class="gallery-icon"> <a class="cboxElement" href="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/multifacet-object-collection-for-displaying-different-objects-5.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img alt="" height="480" id="curGalleryItem" src="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/multifacet-object-collection-for-displaying-different-objects-5.jpg" width="480" /></a></div> <br /></div> <div class="object" id="galleryItem6"> <div class="gallery-icon"> <a class="cboxElement" href="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/multifacet-object-collection-for-displaying-different-objects-6.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img alt="" height="480" id="curGalleryItem" src="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/multifacet-object-collection-for-displaying-different-objects-6.jpg" width="480" /></a></div> <br /></div> <div class="object" id="galleryItem7"> <div class="gallery-icon"> <a class="cboxElement" href="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/multifacet-object-collection-for-displaying-different-objects-7.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img alt="" height="480" id="curGalleryItem" src="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/multifacet-object-collection-for-displaying-different-objects-7.jpg" width="480" /></a></div> <br /></div> <div class="object" id="galleryItem8"> <div class="gallery-icon"> <a class="cboxElement" href="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/multifacet-object-collection-for-displaying-different-objects-8.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img alt="" height="480" id="curGalleryItem" src="http://www.digsdigs.com/photos/multifacet-object-collection-for-displaying-different-objects-8.jpg" width="480" /></a></div> <br /></div> </div> <div class="reference" style="text-align: justify;"> <b>Source</b>: <a href="http://www.dezeen.com/2015/01/20/matali-crasset-multifacet-collection-faceted-presentation-cases-concrete-maison-objet-2015/" rel="nofollow">dezeen</a>, <a href="http://www.matalicrasset.com/" rel="nofollow">matalicrasset</a></div>
