AEGIS VASE
Regular price
$2,180
Aegis Vase is a vessel created by blowing a large gathering of white glass into a brass cage. The rigid, angular form of the metal structure is contrasted with the organic, mouth-blown nature of the glass. Aegis (pronounced EE-jis) means "a form of protection", thus posing the question; is the cage protecting the glass from us, or protecting us from the glass?
