The Mpi Vessel and Candlestick is inspired by the shapes found in African folk horn instruments traditionally made from antelope horns and elephant tusks.
A serene object, the Mpi features openings at both ends and can be used concurrently as a vessel and candlestick. Style with a dried flower arrangement or an elegant pared back look.
Sculpted by hand in limited numbers, each piece is created by artisans using traditional indigenous techniques.
We celebrate the artistry of the human hand and objects made by them. Variations in texture and shading are inherent to this artisanal process, creating unique characteristics in each vessel and object that gives them an individual identity. Every piece is one of a kind and we embrace this.
