Created by Robin van Hontem, these Dancing Vases were designed based on the movement of a spinning top.
Robin van Hontem's Dancing Vases series include 5 vases each representing a stage of a top's deceleration including turning fast, losing speed, and the final drop down.
Each vase in Robin van Hontem's Dancing Vases series is a perfect white color and made through a rapid prototyping process out of nylon.
