In this video, Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec use wooden moulds to create a series of new limited edition versions of their diamond-shaped Ruutu vases. • The design duo originally released the Ruutu vases – the Finnish word for diamond – in 2014. • Unlike the previous range, the limited edition pieces for London's Galerie Kreo were made using wooden moulds – a process that involves inflating molten glass into a wooden cast through a blowpipe. • This gives the rhombus-shaped vessels, created by Finnish manufacturer Iittala, a textured surface that Ronan likens to rain on a window . • Historically Iittala create limited edition pieces, and they asked us if we were interested to do something too, Ronan told Dezeen. We thought it'd be a good idea to produce these vases in wooden moulds, and decided to make them big scale. • When the glass contacts the wet wooden mould, it makes the surface undulate in a certain way – it's a bit like when there's rain on the window he continued. • Read more on Dezeen: http://www.dezeen.com/?p=980735 • Subscribe to our YouTube channel for the latest architecture and design movies: http://bit.ly/1tcULvh
