swirl medium vase
Design Tom Dixon, 2019
Polished marble powder & resin
Made by Tom Dixon
A psychedelic update of an Italian post-modernist aesthetic, the pop sensibility of Swirl is created from a series of geometric forms stacked upon one another to create multi-dimensional, functional sculptures. Made from powdered residue from the marble industry, Swirl is a family of objects each with their own distinct silhouette, coloration and personality.
A mysterious new material that resembles 3D marbled paper yet has the weight of stone. The unique process involves recycling the powdered residue from the marble industry, mixed with pigment and resin to create blocks of material that can then be sawn, sliced and turned on a lathe. Substantial in weight, smooth in texture and bold in pattern, Swirl will inject a fresh pop sensibility into any setting.
* due to the nature of the material, each piece is distinct and unique
* full Swirl collection includes tables, vases, wall hooks, book ends, and candleholders
* sustainable use of waste material
* Swirl vases are inspired by Ikebana, which is the Japanese art of flower arrangement
* anchored with a heavy base, the cylindrical vessels allow branches and flowers to cantilever out
