About the Item

Inspired by the idea of hidden treasure glimmering beneath water and sand, the Fontaine vase explores moments of quiet revelation—where precious elements gradually emerge from depth and shadow. Coins, stones, and shells become abstracted into surface detail, evoking a sense of discovery suspended in time. This Special Edition vase is hand-formed in copper and bronze, then finished with a carefully developed patina that lends the surface its warm, atmospheric tone. Irregular openings reveal inlaid abalone, whose natural iridescence catches the light with subtle flashes of colour, recalling submerged shells or objects glimpsed below shifting water. Layers of lacquer unify the surface, enhancing depth while protecting the delicate balance between metal and inlay. The gently swelling form and restrained ornamentation give the piece a sculptural elegance, allowing material and surface to take precedence over overt decoration. Rooted in traditional metalworking techniques yet unmistakably contemporary, the Fontaine vase is stylistically inventive in the art nouveau sensibility, and understated in the craftsmanship of the art deco period that our workshop adopts. Equally suited to modern and collectible interiors, this work rewards close viewing, revealing its detail gradually—much like the treasures that inspired it.
