It was originally for the Complements line, which is a selection of objects that were created alongside emerging designers in Denmark. It was originally made from solid brass and the new iteration is made of [mouth-blown crystalline glass](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-glass-bottles). The shape of the case was influenced by ancient Greek vessels, traditional pottery, and [ceramic vases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grid-vase). It was important for Sofie Østerby to intricately pay attention to material nature, texture, and timelessness. The clear material is a modern iteration of a historically old art form. It comes in different sizes and has a unique structure.
