Evident is the reference to the Medici Vase, which throughout history has become a true cult object for decorating gardens, villas, and fine settings. Valuable element for indoor or outdoor decoration, it combines style, durability and functionality.
Iconic and timeless, the vase known as the Medici vase originates from the very ancient specimen carved in Athens around the mid-1st century B.C. and later found in the Villa Medici in Rome, from which it took its name. The monumental marble vase today is kept in the Uffizi Museum in Florence.

It gives the environment a refined and modern look, a continuum of elegance to spaces like no other vase or planter can give.

The essence of the classic style of the Vaso Mediceo lies in the preciousness of the material, sobriety and attention to detail.
