La Media Cynara

$420.00

Handcrafted in Palermo, Sicily

La Media Cynara takes its shape from the artichoke, its overlapping leaves forming a small sculptural vase. An iridescent green finish shifts subtly with the light, highlighting the vessel’s organic contours. Its opening can also hold a small votive candle, giving this botanical object a second life beyond displaying flowers.
