Cartocci Corteccia Yellow Footed Vase

Reminiscent of expressionist art and sculpture, this tall cylindrical bowl boasts a refined aesthetic that will elevate any ordinary home decor to art. Fashioned in yellow paper clay, Paola Paronetto’s trademark paper pulp and clay mixture, the unique silhouette subverts classical forms: the inverted, two-tier design is marked by a narrow base bluntly transitioning to a wide mouth with irregular edges evoking flower petals. Displayed as is or alongside other vases from the same collection, this alluring piece will never go out of style. Every one of Paola Paronetto’s creations is unique. Slight variations in shape, colour and size are to be considered a guarantee of authenticity and value. They are finished with non-toxic satin-finish enamels. Although very rarely, it is possible for them to leak after long periods of exposure to water. It is therefore advisable to test their water resistance before using them on delicate surfaces. They should not be used as dining utensils. The white pieces can be washed with water or sanitizing products, whereas the coloured pieces must be treated more gently and cleaned with a feather duster or a soft cloth, dry or moistened very slightly with water.
