Hei Trunk Vase

Glossy black glaze clings to every curve of this contemporary vase based on a traditional form developed in the Song dynasty. Rendered in simple yet sophisticated shapes, Song ceramics were renowned for their subtle monochrome glazes. This updated mallet vase, named for its resemblance to a hand bell or mallet, has a refined bottle shape, flanked along its long neck by handles formed by elephants looping their trunks.
