Ceramic Containers by Vitra
$406.00 CAD
Design by Alexander Girard
The three original models of the Ceramic Containers were made of wood, handturned by Girard on the lathe. Their silhouettes are reminiscent of the traditional shapes of apothecary vessels, board game tokens or millinery blocks. These original wooden objects are held in the Girard Archive at the Vitra Design Museum. Using these models as templates, Vitra has joined together with the Girard family to develop the Ceramic Containers in cast ceramic. The natural material lends the Ceramic Containers an artisanal flair.
