About the Item

Hand-turned from a single block of moutouchi wood, this exceptional French monoxyle vase (circa 1970) embodies the refined organic modernism of the period.

A fine example of 1970s French craftsmanship, this piece unites sculptural presence and material authenticity, bringing a sense of quiet elegance and timeless harmony to any interior.
