Description
This is for the person who loves a table that feels considered, even when nothing is happening on it yet.
The Vase Plaza Athenee Oval Small by Tania Bulhões carries a quiet sense of Parisian romance, reinterpreted through a modern Brazilian lens. Its sculptural oval form is wrapped in a vivid red pattern that feels almost textile-like, softening the porcelain into something warmer and more expressive. Crafted in fine Limoges porcelain, it balances heritage technique with a contemporary graphic rhythm that feels both collected and new.
Style it with a single stem or let it stand alone on a console or dining table. It has that rare quality of feeling like an object and a mood at the same time, bringing energy into a room without raising its voice.
Care
Gold banding and hand painting mean no microwave, ever, and no dishwasher if you want the gold to stay gold. Warm water, mild soap, dry it properly, put it back in rotation. The body itself was fired past anything your kitchen can do to it. The decoration is the delicate part, and even that survives ordinary Tuesdays.

“Inspired by nature and the world"
Tania Bulhões opened a small shop in Uberaba, in the interior of Minas Gerais, in 1989. It sold plates, paintings, whatever came in. Somewhere in there she worked out that the plates were the point. São Paulo followed in 1991.
