Ilex Studio

Ilex Studio was founded in 2018 with a design focus on creating products that highlight the beauty of nature to inspire people to plant, nurture and celebrate the value of plants and trees. We are dedicated to addressing climate change in a simple and meaningful way by encouraging others to grow and plant trees.

Acorn Vase

Innovative and beautifully designed, the Acorn Vase allows you to witness a simple acorn grow into a magnificent oak tree.

The oakling, a young oak tree, can thrive for up to one year in the vase, receiving essential nutrients from the acorn. Once matured, the oakling can be replanted outside and the vase reused for a new acorn.

Perfect for urban dwellers, tree lovers, inquisitive children, and design enthusiasts to bring the magic of nature into their home and hopefully oak trees for future generations.

Avocado Vase

The Avocado Vase’s pure and simple design, based on the principles of minimalism, timelessness, and functionality, allows you to observe the

avocado seed as it matures, giving an insight into the plant’s first stages of life.

We have refined the traditional method of growing, skipping the toothpicks, and utilizing the opening to cradle the seed keeping it dry as it sprouts. The spherical form allows the roots to flourish freely, stabilizing the plant within the vase and creating a stronger base for eventual replanting in soil. The specifically designed glass has a magnifying function, enabling you to see clearly how the roots develop day by day before your eyes.
