DUCK ELEPHANT SATIN WHITE CERAMIC WITH COPPER DETAILS VASE

The DUCK ELEPHANT SATIN WHITE CERAMIC WITH COPPER DETAILS VASE by Jaime Hayon is the work of a designer who has never made peace with the boundaries between art, craft, and fantasy. Part multivase, part sculptural character, this limited-edition piece belongs to a lineage of Hayon objects that demand to be looked at repeatedly — each viewing surfacing something new.

The form is genuinely unlike anything else in decorative ceramics. A bulbous central body carries bilateral lobes — rounded, shield-like masses adorned with crisp white vertical stripe panels against deep metallic copper. Horizontal handle-arms extend from the midsection. Above, mushroom-shaped knobs crown the vessel at multiple heights, their domed tops finished in alternating stripes and copper glaze. A ringed waist transitions into a broad, ribbed circular base that grounds the composition with architectural weight.

The graphic vocabulary applied across every surface — concentric circles, bold crosshatch lines, yin-yang-adjacent disc motifs, stripe fields — borrows from mid-century illustration, Constructivist design, and Hayon’s own iconographic world simultaneously. The satin white and copper palette keeps the complexity unified: warm, rich, and entirely coherent.

Functional as a multi vase sculpture with multiple apertures animal sculpture for floral arrangements, but best experienced as a freestanding art object. A centrepiece for a design-led sideboard, console, or collector’s display shelf, perfect for home decor.
