This beige vase is made from a pile of 700 sheets of paper, each printed with the same illustration of a tree. The paper is glued and pressed into a block, which is then shaped on a lathe. The illustration of a grey tree appears on both the exterior and the interior of the vase. The designer of this fairy-tale vase is the Slovakian designer Tomáš Gabzdil Libertiny, who has recently opened a studio in Rotterdam.
