Objects Rocket Vase by Sophie Alda

Sophie Alda is an artist, designer, maker based in Bristol. She says her objects “approach materiality and tactility in a playful way, rejecting the hierarchy of the practically useful art/object within craft or otherwise”. They are the embodiment of the Greco-Roman vibe, with their bright blue touches recalling the Loulaki-painted homes seen all over Greece, to their classical figurative elements and irresistible curves recalling ancient vessels. The delicious Rocket Vase is hand painted with glazing on the outside and inside – robust enough for water or stems.
