Fia Carafes by Nina Jobs
on 28/2/11
These beautiful carafes are the work of Swedish designer Nina Jobs. Their name 'Fia' comes from the Swedish version of the board game Ludo. Functional simplicity with clean lines and a playful twist, the mouth-blown carafe can be used for water, wine or as a vase, with it's sphere stopper being placed underneath the carafe for decoration as well as storage.

Nina strives for simplicity and a clear-cut relationship to nature, she likes to use natural forms and colours an wants her objects to address more than just one function. Since graduating in Paris, Nina has worked for both big and small firms. She has also helped the Swedish government in curating exhibitions to help promote Swedish design abroad.
“I believe that it is our ability to embrace new trends that is the secret behind the ongoing success of Scandinavian design. Once upon a time it was all about Form Follows Function, today it doesn’t have to be mass-produced and purely functional, it can be so much more. And just beautiful.”
