Aromaph
A mysterious dark and weaving ceramics piece forms a uniquely shaped toroidal aroma bowl.
Fill it with your favorite potpourri or scented water and enjoy the synergy of senses!

10 cm in diameter and 4 cm high
Both suitable for standing or suspended from above.

As with the Phamora, on the bottom it will have a small unglazed white ridge, which can easily be darkened with a permanent marker or a touch of black paint.

A matching pair of earrings, resembling small twigs.
Absolutely stunning in the new Premium Silver!
These are actual photos!

Also wonderful in the other metal finished.
For example, the steel printing process adds an almost natural texture to the twigs.
Which also works very well in bronze or gold finishes!
More earrings

Silver earring hooks included, courtesy of Shapeways!
One twig is approximately 30x19x7mm.

Dodecahedral sibling of Gyro the Cube.
Same principle, more faces, more rings and more fun ;-)
Made of five nested dodecahedra, each one is limited to rotate about it's own axis.

This is the 6.5cm / 2.5" version, see the Gyro the Forms
Experimental corner stand available here

Instructions
For tighter clearances it is printed with the hinges out of place. So this model needs a little manual assembly. Each element has two "knobs" which need to be "clicked" into the corresponding "clamps" in the parent element.
It's easiest to start with the inner one and then continue outwards.
And then... rotate away !

After World Peace I and World Peace II got rejected,
it was silent for a long time.
But the world could wait no longer, so it was high time for World Peace III

Please watch the video for details and instructions.

A combinatory 3D print consisting of a two-part cage design with a peace logo and a color sandstone printed globe.

This is the cage part, you will also need the colored earth globe.
Get a complete set below.

It's a bit tricky to fit together, but please just be gentle :-)
The nylon cage material is quite flexible as you can see in the video, but rude force might break it.
For optimal longevity I recommend to coat the globe in a clear spray paint and glue the cage parts together.

Julia Vase 001 Aqua
Several levels of water flowing

This dry flower vase was derived from the Julia Fractal Set.
Instead of high iteration full color imagery as is common, one can also trace a line over the lower iterations.
Then by slowly altering the input values, we are morphing the fractal while traveling the Z-axis.
And beautiful and elegant forms appear.

Circa 12.5 cm high with 1mm thick walls, this is suitable for all Strong & Flexible materials.
I recommend the polished.

Part of the Julia Vase collection.

A double quintal candle stand to celebrate the five ceramic colors and two finishes.
Two rings with five arms hold each other tightly.

It really shows off the very smooth quality of the new ceramics!
And yes these are actual photo's not renders!

Notes:
The bottom remains unglazed, in normal use this is not visible and even provides some grip.
Suitable for short (half length) candles with a diameter of about 22mm.
With a full length candle it is likely to topple over and would not visually match.
Please handle with care and do not to let the flame get to low/close to the stand.
I recommend to add a little wax between the candle and the stand so it sits tightly,
and/or wrap the bottom of candle with aluminium foil.
