The colbert soliflore vase from Astier De Villatte is a testament to the parisian-based brand's spiritual ethos and fascination with folk art and abandoned objects. Votary of pre-industrial fabrication, Astier De Villatte is celebrated for being the one and only studio in paris to hold and harbour the traditions of artisanal ceramic production. Restoring the ancestral systems of moulding and stamping, this vase is made using techniques from the middle ages which involve moulding a sheet of handmade clay, double firing the ?biscuit' piece and glazing the product in white enamel a lengthy process that requires a drying time of up to one month. Characterised by a cylindrical form which descends into a bulbous base, the small vase is engraved with the brand's signature crest - depicting an interlacing a & v - alongside the initials of one of the 40 master artisans who created it. Pair with other ornate vases from the collection for a coordinated decorative approach. ?we ask people to produce with a good spirit so the pieces look almost alive.
