Signed This unique vase was designed during the designer's travels around the Canary Islands. Its mystical and minimalist form was inspired by a trip to the Coffet Beach on the Fuerteventura Island. It is an extraordinary place that seamlessly blends the boundlessness of the ocean with high mountains, in the middle of which sits Wintter's dilapidated villa. There are many myths about this building and its former function is kept a secret. The remains of the former airport on the beach, the nearby cemetery and the obliterated roads greatly stimulate the imagination. The designer imagined what the sand could still conceal. He sketched this image on the basis of which he made the vase. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
