Two nice ideas from the italian Design Dot, a small publishing house ofobjects in small series. CipCip (99 € ) is a coloured glazed ceramic birdfeeder. It is ready to be hung up outdoors, to provide a warm winter shelter for small birds and a safe nest for large hatches. Thanks to its natural materials, such as hemp rope and unleaded enamels, CipCip is a unique long-lasting object to be used in your garden. It can be used also as a flower pot, for candies or as a toys container for children.Unvase is a vase made up of two elements which, thanks to their profile, featuring a solid and hollow arrangement, create an optical effect which reveals the silhouette of a vase.
Unvase (129 €) aims to provoke reflection on the possible exchange of roles of objects, on the value we attribute to them and to the possibility of thinking of them and looking at them from different viewpoints. Unvase is glazed ceramic bicolour in ebony and white or red and white colors. The matte finish highlights even more the essence of form. Four firings and a patient process of casting and painting by hand return a product of high quality craftsmanship.
