Collection: MARELE LACE VASES

Step into a realm where the echoes of tradition blend seamlessly with contemporary artistry, where the intricate beauty of Cretan traditional lace finds a new canvas upon the organic forms of handmade ceramic vases. Welcome to our collection, a testament to the enduring legacy of craftsmanship passed down through generations.

Each vase in this collection is a marvel of organic shapes, their contours inspired by the gentle curves of nature. But what truly sets them apart is their enchanting glazes – pastel hues that cascade and meld, reminiscent of watercolor dreams. These runny glazes lend an ethereal quality to each piece, inviting the viewer to immerse themselves in a world of soft, subtle beauty.

Yet, it is the addition of handmade Cretan traditional lace that elevates these vases to the realm of artistry. Delicately attached to their surfaces, this intricate lacework tells a story of heritage and tradition, passed down from grandmother to mother, from mother to child. It is a legacy of skill and craftsmanship woven into the fabric of Cretan culture.

the decision to combine these two forms of art was more than just creative inspiration – it was a deeply personal endeavor. Inspired by my mother's mastery of traditional lace, I sought to breathe new life into this ancient tradition, preserving it for generations to come. Creating a symbolic and symbiotic relationship on which, each form of art embraces the other in perfect harmony.

As you behold these vases, you are witnessing more than just objects of beauty – you are witnessing a celebration of heritage.  These vases are a tribute to the past, a bridge to the future, and a reminder that some legacies are meant to endure for eternity.
