Know before you buy
Yes, the vase is crafted from non-porous stoneware, making it fully capable of holding water for fresh floral arrangements.
Because each piece is hand-thrown by Peter Sheldon, you should expect subtle variations in shape and texture. These unique characteristics are intentional and celebrate the artistry of the handmade process.
This vase is not dishwasher safe. We recommend hand-washing it gently with mild soap and water to preserve the integrity of the porcelain slip finish.
This piece is designed specifically for indoor use. We recommend keeping it inside to protect the delicate, milky surface finish from the elements.
The natural pink hue is a result of the high-iron terracotta clay used by the artist. It is not painted, but rather a characteristic of the clay itself when fired.
