Tulipano Corteccia A8/Fragola Bowl

Merging modern design with innovative artistic sensibility, this vase is a daring exercise in balance and visual harmony. Fashioned by artist Paola Paronetto using her signature paper clay (combination of paper pulp, natural fibers and clay), the vase’s silhouette flares out from a tall sturdy base to form a dramatic, flower-like shape evoking a tulip in full bloom. The vibrant coral surface is enhanced by expressive horizontal and vertical ridges, creating a captivating tactile quality. Every one of Paola Paronetto’s creations is unique. Slight variations in shape, colour and size are to be considered a guarantee of authenticity and value. They are finished with non-toxic satin-finish enamels. Although very rarely, it is possible for them to leak after long periods of exposure to water. It is therefore advisable to test their water resistance before using them on delicate surfaces. They should not be used as dining utensils. The white pieces can be washed with water or sanitizing products, whereas the coloured pieces must be treated more gently and cleaned with a feather duster or a soft cloth, dry or moistened very slightly with water.
