Like a slinky, except it's made from cardboard and can be a vase, so it's better (maybe).

Equal parts vase and plaything, this amazing contraption contorts into myriad shapes. The cardboard's unique honeycomb structure makes the piece extremely durable. It's crafted from natural renewable resources -with a high percentage of secondary fiber-making it eco-friendly, as well.
