Lada vase

Leda Vase — Sculptural Twisted Design

A simple profile. A sculptural result.

Leda combines a straight, open rim with broad, smoothly twisted surfaces and an angular, faceted base. Light moves across its clean geometry, revealing a different silhouette from every angle.

Style it on a console, shelf or side table with dried stems and cut branches, or let the shape stand on its own.

Watch Leda take shape

Follow the complete MiniMarvels tutorial: start with a square profile, add opposing twist, refine mirror planes and axis bend, then shape local areas with lattice controls before exporting.

Printing and use

Check the model dimensions, orientation and slicer preview before printing. Adjust the settings for your printer, nozzle and chosen filament.

For fresh flowers, test your individual print for leaks before use. A separate watertight insert that fits the opening is an option. Your printed finish depends on the filament and print settings. Lifestyle images are design visualisations.

Create your own version

Leda was created with our own MiniMarvels app. Explore your own silhouette and proportions at www.minimarvels.app (https://www.minimarvels.app).

Designing is free. Exporting your own design as STL or 3MF requires a paid licence. The model shared on this Thangs page is governed by the licence displayed here.
