Vessels
These elegant glass vessels are an allegory of the inherent mystery of the natural world. Beneath the surface of all things lies a matrix of complexity, from the crash of a wave to the wings of a butterfly. In mathematics it’s called the Fibonacci sequence: the inspiration for the Coral Series. Known for centuries, the pattern has been admired by artists including Leonardo and Le Corbusier. It appears in the rings of Saturn, the branches of plants, and in the human form.

“The book of nature
is written in the language
of mathematics.”
Galileo
But why? Could the pattern be only coincidence?

Created in Zurich Switzerland, these vessels take the Fibonacci sequence as their premise due to the vessels originally resembling the spider’s web. Timeless yet contemporary, they have a strong European influence in their durable structure. They do not attempt to provide a solution to the puzzle, but are a celebration of a beautiful mystery.
