Art Vase "White Tiger" (2024) Sculpture by Ilya Nefodin

Welcome to the Universe of Simargl Legacy!
My name is Ilya, and I transform the silence of stone into poetry of form. My creations are a dialogue with nature, where vases carved from raw stone become conduits of its boundless beauty.

Since childhood, I have been mesmerized by rivers polishing pebbles and the wind etching patterns into sandstone. Jagged edges, whimsical curves, veins dancing like brushstrokes—in every unrefined stone, I saw a masterpiece awaiting liberation. Thus, Simargl Legacy was born: not mere vessels for flowers, but sculptures that awaken the spirit of the earth.

Every vase is a revelation.
Sea stone, bearing the rough memory of waves; river pebbles frozen in marble’s embrace; granite harboring ancient volcanic fire—I collaborate with their essence, not imposing, but unveiling. Delicate polishing preserves their primal texture, while my hand accentuates nature’s rhythm. Three stripes on green stone? Traces of a tiger fleeting through jungles. An uneven silhouette? The wind’s dance etched in stone.

These vases are bridges between elemental forces and human spaces. Their rugged elegance complements minimalism with a whisper of wild freedom, or becomes an eclectic counterpoint to metallic gleam and textile softness. They do not merely adorn—they transform, breathing life into rooms with the pulse of mountains, rivers, and oceans.

Simargl Legacy is not objects. It is stories carved by time and finished by human hands.
