Description
This is for the person who likes small objects that still carry a sense of presence, like a detail that quietly completes a room.
The Vase Portrait Mini by Tania Bulhões brings a compact, sculptural energy to the table, with hand-applied patterning that feels both graphic and artisanal. The form is rounded and grounded, almost jewel-like in scale, with a surface that reads like a painted memory of color and rhythm. Crafted in fine porcelain, it balances playfulness with precision in a way that feels distinctly collectible.
Style it with a single stem, or let it sit empty on a stack of books, a bedside table, or a shelf that needs a small moment of life. A miniature object that behaves like a focal point, without ever asking for attention.
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.
