TULIP vase
'This highly functional vase shows a fascinating elegance, the result of sophisticated manufacturing and craftsmanship.' Statement of the Red Dot Award Jury.
TULIP is a vase winner of a Red Dot Award 2018. The vase is made of one singular glass surface and unfolds as three vases. Both classic and contemporary, it can display small or large bouquet and also garden flowers, calling your inner creativity to play with compositions. After cutting stems, use the same vase to create a new arrangement.
About the making:
The vase is produced with borosilicate glass near Milan. The process starts with different tubes welded one to another and elongated to create a continuous and light surface of glass. It is 100% Made in Italy. All phases involved in production of this model were carried out entirely in Italy.

Fuori Salone 2018, ‘révolutions’ collection presented in Cappellini’s Superloft, at SuperStudio
After living 3 years in Milan, Térence presents ‘révolutions’, a collection of 4 designs inspired by his life in Italy and his international lifestyle between Milan, Paris and London. The public is invited to discover the objects at Cappellini’s Superloft, an ‘imaginary yet real home, cool and eclectic, cultured and elegant […] a proper Superloft, in which the idea is to create an International home’.
The collection includes a side table APEROVOLANTE, a vase TULIP winner of a Red Dot Award 2018, a candle holder SERA and a coffee cup BOCCIOLO. The name of the collection is a reference to the circular geometry of each object conceptually generated by a 360° revolution, conveying each object its minimal and timeless aesthetic.
Each design has been a long and amazing journey made with Italian Master Craftsmen and manufacturers. Many visits, discoveries of tools and materials were made in order to infuse the objects with the indescribable essence of the Made in Italy.
r é v o l u t i o n s – general description
