We came upon this mini vessel shape in Japan and we instantly knew it would make a splash. The offbeat design echoes the image of a vintage glass cloche used in the past to protect garden seedlings.

Not only is it great to entertain matches, but also to trump dullness.

The trick doesn’t end here. Strangely enough, this cloche can be used to host odd specimens.
