fire has a resonance unlike any other. no matter the time or place, sitting in front of warm, quietly crackling embers can make even the darkest nights a little brighter. ‘fire vase’ takes that experience, and brings it to your terrace. the project is a collaboration between barcelona designer martín azúa and ceramist marc vidal. 

fireplaces have always been associated with comfort

azúa has a long history of developing handmade products that address humans’ basic needs. ‘fire vase’ is no exception; the natural ceramics–available in two sizes–are made with high-temp clay that endures heat and thermal shock with ease. the size makes the vase perfect for romantic dinners on a cool evening, or a little extra heat for a night of star gazing. each piece is hand turned, numbered and signed by the designers.
