The Avignon Vase: Earthy Textures and Glazed Details

Discover the quiet charm of the Avignon vase from Ib Laursen, a piece that feels as though it holds a story within its textured walls. Its rustic, jug-like form and earthy finish bring a sense of grounded tranquility to any corner of your home.

Highlights

• A Delightful Contrast of Textures: The rough, sandy-coloured ceramic body provides a wonderfully tactile experience, beautifully offset by the smooth, deep green glazed rim. This contrast adds visual depth and character to your display.
• Perfectly Proportioned for Styling: With its charming, compact dimensions (H: 13.5 cm), this vase is ideal for creating curated displays on windowsills, bookshelves, or side tables, without overwhelming your space.
• An Authentic, Handled Design: The classic handle and jug-like silhouette evoke the timeless appeal of provincial pottery, making this vase a beautiful sculptural object even when displayed on its own.

Inspired by Provincial Simplicity

Inspired by the rustic treasures one might find in a French country market, the Avignon vase by Ib Laursen captures a spirit of timeless authenticity. The beauty of this piece lies in its imperfections and contrasts. Run your fingers over the wonderfully coarse, natural-coloured ceramic body, reminiscent of sun-baked earth, and feel its grounding presence. It’s a design that doesn’t shout for attention, but rather invites a quiet moment of appreciation for simple, well-crafted objects.

The deep, olive green glaze that crowns the rim and handle adds a touch of refined colour and a glossy, crackled finish that catches the light. This thoughtful detail provides a beautiful counterpoint to the matte texture of the vase's body. Whether you fill it with a few dried stems or let it stand alone as a piece of art, the Avignon vase brings a layer of warmth and storied charm to your home.
