Know before you buy
No, this vase is not waterproof. Because it is handblown glass, we recommend using it primarily as a sculptural decorative piece or with dried floral arrangements rather than fresh flowers that require water.
Since the vase is not dishwasher safe, you should clean it by gently wiping the surface with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges to maintain the integrity of the high-gloss finish.
This piece is designed exclusively for indoor use. Exposure to direct sunlight, extreme temperature fluctuations, or outdoor elements may damage the glass or affect the vibrant apricot finish.
Yes. Because each vase is handblown by skilled artisans, you may notice slight variations in the glass, such as small bubbles or subtle differences in shape. These characteristics are hallmarks of the handcrafted process and make each piece unique.
The Big Gem Square Vase is designed as a substantial, commanding piece with a sturdy geometric base. While it is excellent for larger arrangements, please remember that it is not waterproof, so any fresh greenery should be placed in a separate internal liner if you intend to use water.
