From the artist: "these are hand-built, wood fired wall vases. i doubt you've seen anything like them; i haven't. i wanted them, so i had to make them.  they're pretty cool. you live in brooklyn, you love flowers, you have space issues. these hang flush against the wall and make your calla lilies or sunflower look better. it's functional art -- perfect for brooklyn. you can buy the set for your wall or buy the set to keep one and give one away and be the coolest friend ever to give such a creative gift. you want these. you want them badly. so bid."
