This striking geometric, art deco-influenced modern vase was designed by Margareta Hennix for Gustavsberg (Sweden) in the 1980s. With its bold lines and high gloss finish (in variegated pastels on front and back; white on the sides; black on the interior), it commands attention in any context but can also swing many ways, looking great amidst mid-century modern, Hollywood Regency, contemporary, or more traditional decor.
