Fidji 17" Vase by Kjell Engman for Kosta Boda
How does a particular design come about? The inspiration for the Fidji collection originated in the designer’s love of music, the long necks of the bottles reminiscent of organ pipes. The colors were inspired by shimmering rainbows of oil spilled on water.
Material: Glass
