Selected by Pierre-François Le Louët from Nelly Rodi: "An icon of conceptual contemporary design." The B-Set carafe / vase was designed by Hella Jongerius in 1997.By firing the clay at too high a temperature, each element is slightly deformed. The imperfect earthenware is one of the first designs in which individuality is created within serial production, an important theme in Jongerius' work. The casting seams are not polished away, but remain clearly visible. The B-Set 405W #451 is now regarded as an icon in Dutch design history and is featured in a large number of international museums such as: Stedelijk Museum ’s Hertogenbosch, Centraal Museum, Utrecht, Zuiderzee Museum, Enkhuizen. This carafe is also well-suitable to use as a vase. Will be delivered in original packaging.
