Boab Vase

Printing Potters Boab Vase – Sculptural Form Inspired by the Australian Landscape

Inspired by the iconic Baobab (Boab) tree, native to Australia, the Printing Potters Boab Vase celebrates organic form and thoughtful design. Much like the tree it’s named after — known for its distinctive swollen trunk that stores water — this vase features a rounded, textured silhouette that brings quiet strength and sculptural beauty to any interior.

Designed and 3D printed in Melbourne, Australia, each Boab Vase is crafted from PLA (Polylactic Acid), a plant-based bioplastic derived from renewable resources such as corn starch or sugarcane. A glass insert is included, allowing you to safely display fresh flowers while preserving the integrity of the printed form.

Available in a curated palette of soft, modern tones, the Boab Vase is equally striking styled on its own or layered into a considered vignette.
