    The vase boasts a graceful elongated form that expands slightly toward the top (resembling a baluster or a bud) and rests on a shaped, circular stepped foot (piédouche). The upper part of the body is crafted from semi-matte, textured glass in milky-white and soft blue shades, mimicking the texture of frost or a cloudy sky.

    The central accent of the composition is a large, open anemone flower in a rich pinkish-red color. The lower layers of the vase, its base, and the stems are executed in dense dark brown, burgundy, and earthy tones with subtle golden-brown inclusions, creating the effect of flowers growing directly out of deep, textured soil.
