{"product_id":"the-reveal","title":"The Reveal","description":"\u003cp\u003eA vase in Spanish alabaster. Twelve centimetres across, twenty-six tall. The stone is thinnest along the upper third, where light reaches the most. Most translucent at the lip. The rim glows when the piece is backlit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eEach piece is its own\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlabaster forms from gypsum laid down over geological time. Every block carries its own veining, translucency, and warmth of tone. We do not sort or select for uniformity. Your Reveal will be different from the photograph, different from the next one. The differences are not flaws. They are the record of how this particular stone formed, made visible in the finished piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA vessel for a single stem. A tulip. A bare branch from the garden. A spray of dried wheat or grasses. Some owners leave it empty as a sculptural form. Use a glass insert or florists vial inside if you want fresh stems with water. Alabaster does not love direct water contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it works\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA mantel against a quiet wall. A console catching late afternoon light. A windowsill where the sun moves through it for an hour each day. Heavy at the base, light at the top. Sit it on a hard surface where the weight reads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePairs with\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Vesper for evening light at the same level. The Waitākere on the same surface as a lower form.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIn the box\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne vase. 120 mm diameter at base, 260 mm tall. Approximately 2.8 kg. Spanish alabaster.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCaring for alabaster\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWipe with a soft dry cloth. Do not soak. Alabaster is sensitive to water. Use a thin glass tube or florists vial inside the vase if you want fresh stems. Dried stems are simpler. Keep away from direct heat and avoid sudden temperature changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow this drop works\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrop 01 opens in spring 2026.
