Lady with Hat Vase by Bjørn Wiinblad
Invite the new hat lady into your home so she can spread her happy vibes with her lovely colours, quirky details and hand-painted decorations. Bjørn Wiinblad had a love of figurines with hats, and the archives contain countless examples of how hats keep appearing in new, creative and playful ways. Of course, he didn't design small, pretty hats. No, they were large, opulent creations that were both sculptural and avant-garde in their style – just like in the Lady with Hat series. The 20.5-cm vase in glossy glazed ceramic is predominantly blue, and the stringent lines of the skirt contrast beautifully with the circular shapes of the hat. The hat grows like a small tower towards the sky, while the elegant lady holds on to it with her hands. This gives the vase a whimsical and imaginative look, perfect for a bouquet of flowers in a playful home decor. Another recurring detail throughout the series is the presence of the small, figurative flowers placed along the brim of the hats. This is yet another decorative detail inspired by Bjørn Wiinblad’s original shapes and colours. Just like Bjørn Wiinblad himself, the Lady with Hat represents everything that is crazy, quirky, creative and wonderful.
