As a studio piece rather than a standard production item, this vase is highly uncommon and represents a more experimental and sculptural side of Persson’s work.

The form is both restrained and expressive, characterized by a thoughtful balance of texture and surface. The upper section is finished in a rich chocolate-brown glaze adorned with a subtle, graphic pattern, transitioning into a raw, unglazed midsection that highlights the natural ceramic body. The lower portion is accented with a minimalist decorative motif, creating a refined contrast that underscores the vase’s Brutalist sensibility while maintaining a timeless elegance.

True to Inger Persson’s design language, the piece is clean, architectural, and quietly impactful—an object that rewards close viewing as much as it commands presence in a space.

The vase is in very good vintage condition, with no chips or cracks noted.
