Human Heart Carafe
Drawing on the design world’s current fascination with anatomy, the Cuore (Heart) carafe presents a beautiful, if not slightly unsettling, view of the fragility of the human body. The piece, designed by Liviana Osti, is composed of two carafes nestled in the form of a human heart. It is a reminder that one should drink as much water as wine.
Osti designed the piece as a response to a challenge given by Milan showroom Paolo C. to students (herself included) at Bolzano University. The directive was to design a tableware collection, which the company subsequently produced, centered on themes relating to eating habits, food, and health.
Made from transparent blown borosilicate glass (more popularly known as Pyrex).
It this available for purchase? In that case; where?
Where can I get these?
I also really want to know where I can get it.
If someone knows…
Hi all, I don’t think that this is currently for sale, but hopefully it will be. You can contact the designer to see if she has any plans for production through her website: http://www.livianaosti.com
How much are one of these carafes. Would love to purchase for my dad!
That’s nice. Wine especially red wine is good for the heart. But how do we know the limit?
I need this! My husband is a heart surgeon and I must have two of these. They are beautiful!
