Know before you buy
The vase is fully water-tight. You can safely use it for fresh floral arrangements without worrying about leaks.
The vase weighs 6 lbs, which provides a substantial, stable base. It is designed to hold floral arrangements securely without being prone to tipping.
It features a refined satin glaze. This gives the surface a smooth, soft sheen that highlights the architectural lines of the design while protecting the terracotta.
Because of the satin glaze, the vase is easy to maintain. You can simply wipe it down with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust or water spots.
At 13 inches, it is a statement piece that works well on dining tables, provided you choose floral stems that allow for clear sightlines across the table. It is also an excellent height for consoles, mantels, or bookshelves.
