The vase features a beautifully balanced, organic oval form executed in subtly smoked glass with warm amber-grey tones. Its sculptural silhouette is complemented by a thick, clear glass base that adds both visual weight and refinement. The softly rounded body and polished finish highlight Orup’s mastery of form and proportion, while the restrained color palette reflects the clean Scandinavian aesthetic of the period.
