Pelike XL takes its name from the ancient Greek pelike, a vessel for water or wine often decorated with myths, stories and everyday scenes. Layered Ceramics Studio reinterprets that idea of narrative ornament for the digital age: algorithms and scripts become a language, shaping form through code.
The resulting surfaces unfold with intricate precision, translating large amounts of data into complex patterns that emerge layer by layer, embedded in the object and waiting to be read. The vase is 3D-printed in ceramic.
It is made from deep black, unglazed stoneware, which lets the patterns read with greater clarity and depth; the matte exterior heightens the contrast and the tactile and visual complexity of the ornament. Glazed on the interior, the vessel is fully watertight and functional, able to hold water and fresh flowers.
Pelike XL is one of three sizes in the collection, S, M and XL, each with multiple variations. Custom versions can be developed on request, with variations in form, pattern and ceramic color.
Hand washing is recommended. Because of its handcrafted nature, slight irregularities may occur.
