Dimensions: 32 x 20 x 53cm high | 4.25 kg
Material: Polished brass
Appropriately named, Bash vessels are formed from a single brass sheet and hammered into shape by hand, creating an expressive crumpled form, available in lavish gold and silver. Each piece will have a unique form. Presented in gift-worthy packaging these are decorative object ideal for use as a flower vase, fruit bowl or as a contemporary sculpture. The tray allows for bigger parties and more ceremonial snacks.
Bash is inspired by the desire for more organic, spontaneous and unpredictable design in a world swamped with mass produced, consistently well-finished objects. Smacked, beaten and hammered into abstract shapes each one bears the imprint of the tools and the personality of the craftsman. These hand-made bowls are surprisingly delicate given the aggressive hammering that is necessary in their crafting. Bash Vessels are treated with a wash which renders the surface of the brass matt and are not lacquered or treated with any sealant. This means the objects oxidise over time to create a unique patina. To prevent this, use it for decorative purposes only and protect the object from humidity and liquids, which will accelerate the process.
Please note: Each unique piece is formed by hand from a single sheet of brass, finished with a gold wash and a food safe lacquer. These products are handmade and variations may occur from piece to piece.
Use with dry food only and wash in warm soapy water and dry with a soft cloth.

Tom Dixon is a restless innovator who works mainly in lighting, accessories and furniture. From his departure point in the early eighties welding salvaged steel into radical furniture, he has constantly reinvented himself through a series of different design lives – working with luxury Italian goods with Cappellini, Creative Director at Habitat and Artek, creating Plastics company Eurolounge and finally instigating his own eponymous brand in 2002 to rethink the product designer’s relationship with industry.
The latest chapter of Tom’s design journey began in 2002 when he left corporate life to create his own eponymous brand as a platform for a series of new adventures in the design of products and interiors.
15 years on, Tom Dixon is now a widely celebrated global force in interior design with his own hubs in New York, Hong Kong SAR, China, London, Los Angeles and Tokyo.
