CROSS VASES
Background
Bodil Kjær set out to create vases with "inner walls" that would make flowers appear more like they do growing in nature. Also, she wanted a vase that would show up a single branch or a single flower rather than a whole bunch. Bodil Kjær wanted to create forms, with the inherent possibility of interlocking, to form large beds of flowers indoors. That is how the cross vases came about.
