This delicate minimalistic vase provokes feelings of peace and serenity. Yuki Kianna is a genius when it comes to designing her beautiful ceramics. Using her lakeside studio in Nelson, British Colombia, Canada, her inspiration comes from nature and its surroundings. These simple yet brilliant vases exemplify exactly that and will inspire you to take a brisk winter walk along the lake to collect the perfect set of tiny flowers to fill the vase.
The vase is the perfect, simple yet purposefully-designed, accent piece for your coffee table, kitchen island, or even a soft touch for the bathroom. Each design and shape is subtly different from the other showcasing the beauty of human-made products. The vase comes in two colorways – fog gray or nelson blue, both with a fine detail of gold intertwined.

The Maker
Yuki's work is born out of a childhood that was lived in the outdoors. Her creative energy comes from being surrounded by the vast mountains, lakes, forests, and oceans of British Columbia. Her pieces often are created to reflect this rock and wood. With simplified designs, she reveals the natural elements at work within the medium, showing that beauty can be built without machines.
Yuki mixes her own glazes and is constantly experimenting with new techniques. Pieces that don’t make it into her kiln are placed in water, dissolved into a clay slurry, and spread out to dry and wedged back into usable clay. This is all done in the effort to minimize waste.
