'Vessel 1', natural smooth clay

Comprising a series of contemporary sculptures honed from clay, the 'La Terra' collection is the brainchild of South African brand Lemon and artist Jade Paton. Alongside nature, architecture, design and contemporary art, Paton looked towards ancient vessels for inspiration, a clear influence seen throughout the collection, both in the surface textures — which can be raw and unique — and the shapes and forms of each piece, which are often beautifully unexpected. Handcrafted from a smooth, natural clay and distinct for its bulbous silhouette and thin neck, 'Vessel 1' straddles both ancient and futuristic aesthetics and as such is suited to a range of environments.
