Kintsugi Love in Bloom Vase / Gold

The iconic Love In Bloom vase, created by Italian designer Marcantonio, is presented in this stunning edition inspired by the Japanese art Kintsugi. Kintsugi ('golden joinery'), is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by mending the areas of breakage with lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum. As a philosophy, it treats breakage and repair as part of the history of an object, rather than something to disguise.

The Seletti 'Love in Bloom' vase reproduces the heart in an intricate way, the veins and arteries making a network of bud vases ready for your next floral display. This is sure to make a perfect gift for your loved one. And one thing’s for sure, it will not go unnoticed by house guests!
