Spice Up Your Space Garlic Bud Vase

The trompe l'oeil ceramic tradition — objects made to be mistaken for something else — has delighted collectors since the 17th century, when European potters began producing pieces that played tricks on the eye. This is that instinct at 11cm: fine earthenware formed into a garlic bulb, the proportions exact enough to do a momentary double-take on a kitchen shelf. Holds a single stem well. The kind of piece that earns its place not by commanding attention but by quietly amusing whoever notices it.
