Audo Copenhagen Surround Vase

A vase turned from a single block of solid wood, sitting on a recessed base that lifts the form slightly off the surface. Designed by Colin King for Audo Copenhagen.

The Audo Copenhagen Surround Vase is shaped from one continuous piece of wood. The round symmetrical body, the soft contouring across the surface, and the recessed base are all carved from the same block. The grain pattern runs continuous through the form, varying naturally between pieces as the wood differs.

Small opening for minimal arrangements

The narrow opening at the top supports single-stem or minimal arrangements rather than spread bouquets. Used empty, the vase reads as a turned wood object. The form is the design, no applied detail.

• Dimensions: 6.8"H x 11.8"DIA (+/- 5%), Weight: 4.85lbs.
• Materials: Mango wood

• Turned from Solid Wood – The vase is shaped on a lathe from a single block, which produces a form that is structurally continuous and reveals the wood's grain in circular cross-section patterns — the turning process is visible in the final surface.
• Recessed Base Creating a Floating Effect – The base is set back from the vase's widest point, creating a gap between the vessel and the surface it rests on — the lift is subtle but gives the form visual lightness despite its solid wood weight.
• Small Opening for Minimal Arrangements – The narrow opening supports a single stem or a small number of stems rather than a full arrangement — the vase is designed for restraint in its floral use, reflecting its character as a considered object rather than a display vessel.
• Natural Wood Grain as Primary Surface Character – The turned finish reveals the grain's circular and linear patterns across the surface — each vase carries a unique pattern determined by the position and character of the wood block it was turned from.
• Designed by Colin King – The Surround Vase reflects King's approach of using material character and precise formal geometry as the sole design elements — no applied decoration or surface treatment beyond the turning process itself.
