Made of ceramic, the Sugar Cube Vase is a playful composition enlivened with squares shaped like sugar cubes, thus the name. The white glaze on the surface of the squares leaves certain edges of the white cubes unglazed so that a hint of the color of the natural material brings texture to the vase. This is one of the most artisanal aspects achieved by talented ceramicists. The way the cubes build and expand toward the top is a lovely aspect of this design.
