Turned by hand from solid wood and shaped like a tamarind seed pod, the Tamarind Vase wears a marbling produced the way decorative papers once were, with veining drawn over the surface in slow, wandering lines. It reads modern without reading severe, because the form came from nature rather than a drafting table. Put it on a hallway console where people pass close to it, on a bedroom dresser beside a lamp, or on a home office shelf as the one piece there that is not paper or plastic.
