Know before you buy
Yes, the vase is crafted from durable stoneware and is designed to withstand both indoor and outdoor environments, making it a versatile piece for a patio or dining table.
Because each piece is individually hand-painted, there will be subtle variations in the brushwork and finish. These unique characteristics are intentional and part of the artisanal nature of the product.
The vase stands 26 cm (10.24 inches) tall with a width of 52 cm and a depth of 17 cm, providing a substantial, elongated silhouette perfect for tabletop displays.
The glazed stoneware surface is relatively easy to maintain. We recommend wiping it down with a soft, damp cloth to keep the colors vibrant and to avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners that could scratch the finish.
It is designed to be fully functional. While it serves as a striking sculptural object on its own, it is perfectly suited for showcasing fresh floral arrangements.
