About the Item

This handblown Penny vase by Martyn Thompson embodies the designer’s poetic approach to color, texture and storytelling in glass. Its generously rounded silhouette is crafted in a warm, buttery cream tone, animated by a joyful constellation of oversized polka dots in yellow, blush pink, white and deep espresso. Each dot is individually worked into the surface during the hot-glass process, creating soft edges, gentle gradients and the subtle dimensionality that marks true artisan craftsmanship. The vase’s sculptural form, with its narrow foot and flared lip, enhances the play of light across the glossy surface, while the organic variations inherent in the handblowing technique ensure that no two pieces are ever the same. Both whimsical and refined, this Penny vase captures Thompson’s signature blend of artful imperfection and contemporary elegance, making it an expressive decorative object for any interior.
