Part of Milan Pekař’s ongoing exploration of crystalline glazes, this vase reveals the expressive potential of ceramic surfaces through controlled chemical reactions and carefully calibrated firing processes.

Developed through months of glaze research and repeated test firings, the crystalline surface forms as temperature is precisely adjusted during the firing cycle. Metallic oxides introduced into the glaze encourage crystalline structures to grow, producing luminous patterns and depth unique to each piece.

To present these complex surfaces with clarity, the vase is based on a simple geometric form. The model is first created in plaster, then slip-cast in porcelain to achieve a pure surface that allows the crystalline glaze to remain the visual focus. The result is a balanced composition where material transformation, light, and color interact with restraint.

Handcrafted in the Czech Republic, the piece exists at the intersection of ceramic research, material experimentation, and collectible design.

As a service to our customers, we arrange the shipping of orders via one of our preferred carriers. Shipping cost will be calculated after confirmation of your delivery address. We will email you within 3 days with the quotation for your acceptance. You have the right to withdrawal from the purchase if delivery cost will not meet your expectations.

All charges are proforma and will be included on your order’s final balance.

Two options are available :

White glove service: our shipping partner will unload, unpack, check and install the product in the room of your choice.

Simple service: our shipping partner will unload the product and deliver it in front of the building. If you choose to manage your own freight and delivery, Studio Fenice must be notified of the specific details of the movement. The fee to move the product from a manufacturer to a terminal for “customer’s own” pick-up will be added to the balance due. The location of the pick-up by the client or the client’s agent may trigger sales tax responsibility at that location.

Ownership of the product transfers to the client upon the freight carrier taking possession of the order for transport. Therefore, responsibility for damage occurring in-transit is the owner’s and all claims for freight damage must be made within 72 hours of receipt. If customer selects their own freight carrier, freight claims must be filed directly with the selected carrier. Studio Fenice is not responsible for a customer’s own or third party freight damage and claim.
