The VASE is a piece by Max Lamb and part of the TOKONOMA series.
This piece, with its striking primitive form, was designed based on the designer's contemplation of form: "Adding volume to the bottom of an elongated cylinder creates a stable shape." Using the free-blowing technique of glassblowing, individual differences in shape are created, resulting in a beautiful finish with a shimmering, wavering texture. As its name suggests, it can be used as a single-flower vase, but it can also be enjoyed as a decorative object.
TOKONOMA is a collection launched in 2015 by London-based designer Max Lamb.
Inspired by the concept of "tokonoma" (alcove), this collection consists of different materials and functions based on Japanese interior styling. Individual elements such as material, size, color, texture, and weight interact and enhance each other. Consciously, and sometimes unconsciously, they blend in, and when the four pieces come together in daily life, they become everyday objects that provide both practicality and beauty.

MAX LAMB
Born in 1980. Having spent his childhood in Cornwall, a rural town on the west coast of England, his love for nature and his spirit of creation led him to explore materials using both traditional and unconventional methods. Today, he continues to rethink the function of materials while utilizing their inherent qualities, aiming to create positive relationships among products, manufacturers, and users through simple yet effective designs. After graduating from Northumbria University, he earned a master's degree from the Royal College of Art (RCA) in 2006. While leading lectures and workshops, he is based in London and engaged in creating new designs by applying traditional ideas about materials and actively participating in the production process himself.
