Bat Vase

A little bat with big eyes, pointed ears and a tiny nose has wrapped its leathery wings around the vase. The wings have relief veins and reach all the way down, with the head at the front. The whole body is black, as in the photo, so a red rose, orange flowers and dark leaves look properly dramatic in it.

It is printed on a 3D printer from PLA, a biodegradable plastic made from corn starch, in Stara Zagora. Available in five heights from 15 to 35 cm at 1 EUR per centimetre, made to order within 5 working days. It is wide and steady, ideal for Halloween tables, gothic rooms or as a gift for a teenager.
