Edges with a pulse

The Limn Vase turns shadow and pattern into conversation—angular planes catching light, blue and ochre lines threading through the room.

Made over days, meant for years

A grid that moves with you

No twin on the table

Rooms often need a focal point that feels considered, not loud.
Limn Vase carries a quiet geometry—faceted sides, traveling lines—that settles easily among books, fruit, or morning mail.
Each piece is unique, so the eye keeps returning, tracing the grid as it wraps and shifts.
It’s sculpture first, vessel second, and it earns its place without trying.

Calm energy, held

Objects that keep pace with daily life make spaces feel lived-in rather than staged.
Limn Vase stands confidently on a console or dining table, catching late light and changing through the day.
Its hand-layered pattern invites a closer look, the way good company does.
You bring flowers when you like; it holds presence on its own.

For the collector at home

Someone who notices craft at arm’s length—who rearranges shelves on Sunday, sets a single stem on Monday, and wants a singular vase that rewards both.

In the room

Place the Short, Tall, or Fat Limn Vase on a dining table or entry console and style it with a single branch or leave it empty as sculpture.

Crafting with intention

About rust designs

rust designs makes personalized dinnerware and one‑of‑a‑kind porcelain lamps and tables from Brooklyn, NY. The maker treats lighting as part of a room's composition, approaching objects the way a working designer does rather than a practicing musician — a philosophy that shapes each handmade piece. Everything is made to order: expect at least three weeks for personalized items and six to eight weeks for handmade pieces. Orders of $150 and over ship free, and finished work is packed in 100% recyclable material. Buyers choose rust designs for pieces that are personal and deliberate—functional dinnerware and sculptural lighting that arrive both unique and considered, with the patience and care of a studio practice behind every order.
