Marie Michielssen's Billy vases blur the line between vessel and sculpture. Hand-molded with an intuitive approach that balances organic forms against geometric logic, each piece has an almost primitive, elemental quality. The irregular shapes are captivating on their own or filled with architectural branches. Three styles available, striking as a collected group or separated to bring sculptural presence to different rooms. Please note these are decorative pieces and may not be fully waterproof.

Pamela's notes
I fell for these vases when I encountered them in Spain and brought home all three styles for my kitchen. The hand-molded, irregular shapes have a playful quality that keeps them from feeling too serious or precious. Mine hold dried flowers most of the time, though I love how sculptural they are standing empty. Fun to display as a trio or split them up to bring that organic, handmade energy to different rooms.
