Referencing ancient Greek vessels

Referencing classic ceramic vases and

ancient Greek vessels The Hydro Vase makes

a modern statement that incorporates the

material properties and appeal of brass.

Chosen because it can be shaped in ways that

resemble iconic pottery, brass exudes even

more character with a patina that will gradually

emerge over time. With Hydro, Copenhagen-

based designer Sofie Østerby establishes an

equilibrium between the visual impact of the

brass and the shape itself.

Hydro is cast by a small workshop in Portugal

that has retained the ancient technique of

creating traditional armour. The dark, almost

black oxidised surface adds a subtle dimension

to an enduring design that seems to defy

time. Culminating in a vase that doubles as a

decorative sculpture. Classic yet contemporary

– and collectible.
