Kink Vase

June 8, 2020

What I find important for my home is the flexible and multifunctional aspect of furniture and interior accessories. For example, the String Cabinet which I can easily adjust every time I want or need a different kind of shelving. The Kink Vase by Muuto certainly also fulfills this condition. It’s more than just a vase. When filled with flowers or a single branch the vase - of course - is beautiful. Yet, when empty it’s more of a sculpture and special object. Which I like very much, also due to the fact that I don’t always have (or want) flowers or branches at home.

What the Kink Vase also distinguishes from others is the double-mouthed design. Fill them both of just one, the double-mouthed provides a totally new look every time you fill-up the vase. The vase is designed by Earnest Studio for Muuto. A good combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern design aesthetics.

It comes in one size and two colors, namely Beige and Blue. It’s made of porcelain but has a soft appearance due to the finish and shape. Matt on the outside, glazed on the inside. For me, beige was the most logical choice. It works very well with the wood and the warm grey, white, black and brown tones at home.

The Danish Muuto was founded in 2007 by Peter Bonnen and Kristian Byrge and now has a full collection of chairs, tables, cabinets, sofas, lightning and home accessories. The name comes from the Finnish word muutos which means change or new perspective. Muuto works with different designers from all over the world. For the Kink Vase they collaborated with Earnest Studio. Founded by American-born Rachel Giffin and based in The Netherlands. Following a fascination for simple, flexible objects, projects and structures with a preference for materials. Which is reflected in the design of the Kink Vase.
