An expressive ceramic object by Bořek Šípek, created in the 1980s/90s and produced for Driade, Corsico. Šípek is considered one of the most important postmodern designers in Europe – known for his poetic, imaginative forms and the combination of baroque, organic and playful elements.
This object displays the typical Šípek formal language: conical elements, ornamentally painted tips, colored appliqués, and a sculptural structure that oscillates between vase, object art, and decorative architecture. The central black structure with openings forms a strong contrast to the light, richly decorated ceramic elements.
With a height of 35 cm and a diameter of 30 cm, this piece is one of the representative Šípek objects from the Driade production – ideal for collectors of postmodern design art, for expressive interiors or as an iconic individual piece.
