GLOOPY VASE BY SETH

A Shapely New Gloopy

The curvy, undulous vase inspired by Seth's originals is the first extension to the Gloopy Ashtray by Seth. The yellow-aqua gloops gather and drip to complement the large and shapely shape of our vase. Each piece has unique larger gloops than on our ashtrays, and more areas without gloop, resulting in a style that’s similar to our Gloopy Ashtrays, but also feels distinctive. Like some of the other revered vases in the history of vases, our Gloopy Vase looks just as good empty on a shelf as it does filled with a beautiful bouquet of freshly cut flowers.

SETH'S ORIGINALS

The vase form in this collection is a copy of Seth’s original work shown here.

the glaze

Our Gloopy glaze is, quite literally, globs of molten glass. The way they set onto ceramics not only creates an interesting, asymmetrical texture and pattern, but makes each piece entirely one-of-a-kind. These colorful globs of formerly liquid glass also give us the opportunity to create an endless mix of totally unique colorways. It’s the kind of glaze that both stands out from the piece it’s applied to, and makes the entire piece stand out. It’s also what makes our Gloopys, gloopy.

HAND-FIRED

The Gloop has to be added by hand, which is another reason each piece is so unique in its texture, look, feel and finish. Also, because of the nature of the Gloop, the glaze has to be applied right in front of the kiln moments before we fire each individual gloopy, otherwise it will slide off the piece, resulting in a gloop-less ashtray or vase surrounded by a melted pile of gloop. The amount of time and effort that goes into making a single Gloopy is why each edition is so limited.
