    A sculptural crystal bowl designed by Taddei Sestini for Kristall Krisla in the 1970s — a piece that echoes the frozen clarity of a glacial surface. With its wide, open form and sharply textured base, this bowl expands the visual universe of the Body of Glacier series, revealing the poetic tension between solidity and fluidity.

    The thick crystal, heavy yet luminous, captures and refracts light in fragments, much like frozen water catching sunrays before it melts. This contrast — between stillness and transformation — imbues the piece with a quiet intensity. Though industrially produced, its finish evokes a natural process: an artefact shaped by geological time rather than human intervention.

    Part of the Body of Glacier collection, the bowl speaks to a broader conversation about matter, memory, and the ways in which our domestic landscapes absorb the languages of nature. Designed not only as a vessel but as a surface of reflection — literal and conceptual — it stands at the intersection of function and contemplation.

    Only one piece available.
