Zaha Hadid has created a series of vases made from crystal for the french brand Lalique. Unveiled at Maison et Objet 2014, these striking new vases feature the same trademark forms and lines that define Hadid’s buildings. Called Crystal Architecture collection, the range comprises two vases: Manifesto, a curved and ridged vessel that plays with texture, and Viso, a slender, aqueous tower. Both models models are available in clear or black versions and with satin or polished finishing.
“I have always had a passion for glass and crystal, and started collecting pieces at an early age in a variety of shapes, sizes and colors,” says Hadid.
“The architectural language we have developed is a manifesto of our experimentation and research into fluidity and transparency.
“We work hard to instill these qualities in our work.”
It is expacted that the Zaha Hadid’s vases will be available to purchase from Lalique stores in April. Prices start at €12,000 ($16,400).
