“Eucalyptus” by Leo Maher is a celebration of nature’s beauty and the intricate balance of life. The vase features a 3D-printed matte black exterior, complemented by a glass inner layer that provides a clear, elegant medium for displaying flowers. Details of the matt black 3d-print are accentuated with high-gloss resin. Topping this design is a canopy of steel leaves, which gently arch over the vase’s opening, creating a harmonious and protective frame for the floral arrangements within.
Inspired by the eucalyptus tree, renowned for its lush and shading canopy, this vase mimics the serene elegance of its foliage. The steel leaves, with their intricate design, cast delicate shadows, enhancing the visual appeal and adding a layer of complexity to the vase. This piece transforms the concept of a vase from a simple container to a meaningful vessel, reflecting the harmony between nature’s resilience and its ephemeral splendor. “Eucalyptus” invites us to cherish the present and find beauty in the balance of life’s enduring and transient elements.
The vase has an industrially manufactured glass inner. The 3D printed plastic can be wiped clean with a damp lint-free cloth. The steel ‘leaves’ turn in any direction to accommodate various flowers.
