Pair of mini vases in veined pink alabaster

Pair of mini vases in veined pink alabaster, assembled from fine polished plates revealing the natural hues of the stone. Each piece features a unique play of transparencies blending powder pink, pearlescent ivory, honey, and amber veining. The geometric panel construction highlights the graphic character of the whole, while the mineral material delicately diffuses light. The differences in coloration between the two vases testify to the natural character of alabaster, making each piece unique. No brand or provenance indicated. In good vintage condition, with some inclusions, veining, and natural irregularities of the stone visible, inherent to this material (see photos). Height 12 cm, widest diameter 7 cm, base diameter 7 cm. Their palette of pink, cream, and honey brings a rare graphic softness to the world of stone objects.
