The Tessara Vase — 3D Printed Sculptural Vase
The Tessara is built on a single idea taken seriously: what happens when a hexagonal grid becomes a three-dimensional surface. The answer is a landscape of interlocking facets that catches and redirects light differently across the day — casting precise, geometric shadows that shift as the hours do. A 3D printed vase that earns a permanent place on a shelf rather than a seasonal rotation.
Form & Function
Available in two editions depending on how you intend to use it.
The Sculptural Edition is made for dried florals, pampas, and standalone display.
The Watertight Edition features a hand-applied impermeable finish, suitable for fresh water and live stems.
Two sizes: Small (20cm) and Regular (25cm).
Material
Made from PLA — a bio-polymer derived from fermented plant starches. Structurally comparable to conventional synthetics, with a meaningfully lower carbon footprint. The surface carries DreamForm's signature digital grain: not a finish applied over the form, but a texture that emerges directly from how the object is made. On the Tessara especially, the grain and the facets work together — the additive process and the geometric logic reinforce each other.
Provenance & Care
Every Tessara is made to order in our UK studio. Zero-waste production, plastic-free archival packaging. Avoid environments exceeding 50°C and prolonged direct sunlight. Hand-wipe only; not dishwasher safe.
