The Moon Vase

The flea market season is almost over, but I spend most of the summer visiting some of my favorites. For me, it is a mix of shopping and inspiration. It really amazes me to see other peoples stuff and see what they are willing to let go. We all see things differently and what is a treasure in your eyes might be trash to someone else. My last purchase is this yellow glass sculpture, that I later learned goes under the name The Moon Vase. I bought it for 5 euros, a bargain in my eyes for something unique. It was just the perfect mix of odd and beautiful.

At the bottom of it is says AnneKK 2006. First I thought that it might just be a school project, but one of my followers on Instagram helped me out. It turns out, that it is made by the Danish glass artist AnneKK. Some of her most recognizable work is the Fish and the Moon vases. I love going on these treasure hunts in Sundays, not knowing what you will find. When I get old, I want to open a little store, with all my carefully curated flea market finds.
