Description:
The CHORISIA, a commanding and undeniably striking sculptural vase from Elica Studio's visionary "Naturalia" collection, offers a powerful artistic statement for the discerning interior designer. Designed in 2021, this piece boldly challenges traditional decorative norms, presenting a fusion of raw, organic inspiration with sophisticated ceramic artistry. Its elongated form, adorned with a dramatic array of sharp protrusions, makes it an exceptional focal point in any high-end contemporary, minimalist, or avant-garde interior, designed to provoke thought and stimulate visual engagement.
Masterfully crafted from premium porcelain, the CHORISIA is distinguished by its deep, uniform matte green hue, achieved through a precise application of engobes and oxides. This refined surface treatment absorbs light beautifully, highlighting the vase's complex geometry and intricate detailing without harsh glare. As vividly illustrated in the accompanying image, the vase's cylindrical or slightly conical body is entirely enveloped in sharp, angular spikes that extend outwards in every direction. These deliberate, menacing forms transform the elegant silhouette into a formidable biomorphic structure, reminiscent of a thorny plant stem, a defensive sea creature, or even an abstract crystalline growth. The rich green color deepens its connection to nature, evoking lush foliage, ancient moss, or the vibrant hues of deep forest, while the matte finish lends it an earthy, grounded presence.
The unique green palette of the CHORISIA is a testament to its powerful and sophisticated design. This particular shade of green offers remarkable versatility, allowing the vase to seamlessly integrate into a wide array of interior design schemes. It can introduce a vibrant pop of natural color into a neutral space, complement an existing biophilic design, or provide a sophisticated grounding element in a bolder, more eclectic environment. For interior designers, the CHORISIA offers an unparalleled opportunity to introduce an element of raw, organic sophistication and artistic edge, creating a dialogue between nature's defense mechanisms and refined human craftsmanship, all while adding a compelling color story.
Weighing a substantial 3900 grams and standing at an impressive height of approximately 60 cm with a diameter of around 32 cm, the CHORISIA commands attention with its graceful yet formidable presence. Its elongated proportions make it an ideal choice for a prominent floor placement in an entryway, as a dramatic centerpiece on a large credenza, or as a distinctive sculptural element within a curated art collection in a spacious living area or high-end commercial space. The "Naturalia" collection draws its inspiration from the abstract forms and inherent power of the natural world. This iteration of the CHORISIA perfectly encapsulates this ethos, translating nature's protective elements into a piece of art that is both beautiful and deeply thought-provoking. It speaks to a desire for authentic, wild beauty, reinterpreted through a lens of sophisticated artistic innovation.
Designed in 2021, the CHORISIA has already carved out its place as a contemporary icon in decorative arts, affirming its timeless appeal and cutting-edge design. For interior designers seeking to imbue their projects with unique character, a sense of daring elegance, and a truly unforgettable artistic statement, this vase is an exceptional choice. Its bold form, meticulous craftsmanship, and striking visual impact make it a truly memorable addition that pushes the boundaries of conventional decor. With a standard lead time of 30 days, incorporating this extraordinary sculpture into project timelines is seamless, promising to deliver a profound artistic presence that will be admired for its unique beauty and conceptual depth, leaving a lasting impression on any discerning viewer.
