L I O R A - meaning 𝘓𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵, is the first handmade paper vase design of a hopefully growing vase collection.
Inspired by the deckled edges of handmade paper, naturally created during the papermaking process, and the variations in transparency of different types of handmade paper.
When the light shines through the kozo paper, giving the paper a naturally warm feeling, the wild fibers appear and start dancing with each other.
The play with transparency and the long wild kozo fibers combine perfectly with the more uniform, calm and soft character of abaca and provide a good balance between the different textures. These unique characteristics are the essence of the design.
Each vase is formed entirely by hand. Due the handmade nature of the papermaking process no two sheets of paper are alike. Therefore, each vase is one of a kind and has its own unique character.
The result of an intensive process is a timeless and minimalistic lightweight design, a stunning addition to any interior.
Every piece of paper is made by my hands.
When I made my first piece I directly fell
in love with the fascinating process.
Experimenting with different kind of
fibers and techniques is simply what I love
to do the most.
I hope my paper brings you as much joy as
it brings me!
