The Solace Collection features vessels of remembrance. When developing this idea, I started to look into lachrymatories: the tiny glass or terracotta vessels found in Roman and late Greek tombs. It is believed that these vessels were used to collect tears when mourning a loved one. This is a very symbolic and endearing concept to honour the deceased. So with the Solace Collection, she wanted to create objects that embodied and paid homage to special ideas or souls in people’s lives.
Each piece is made of hand-blown glass, intricately cut stoppers.
