Highlighting Van Assche’s eye for nuanced details, the collection features vases and vessels crafted from diverse materials like silver-plated glass tubes, porcelain, and concrete, each piece meticulously designed to hold single-stem arrangements. The blend of polished silver finishes and clean-lined, structural bases emphasizes Van Assche’s signature minimalism, echoing his fashion roots. To complement the launch, renowned Antwerp-based floral designer Mark Colle contributed artful arrangements, underscoring the collection’s sophisticated practicality.
