'Cloud' vessel, short

Characterised by the use of highly reflective polished aluminium, Tom Dixon's 'Cloud' collection doesn't have to work hard to draw the eye. Inspired by the shape of seedpods, each piece is handmade in India by skilled artisans who have shaped the items through controlled hammering and indentations that also impart every object with its own wholly original texture. This silver vessel is additionally unique for its versatility — it may be employed as a vase, a champagne bucket or even a fruit holder, amongst many other uses.
