Know before you buy
The vessel is designed to hold fresh florals, so it is suitable for use with water. However, because it is a handcrafted terracotta piece, we recommend using a liner or being mindful of potential moisture seepage if placed on delicate surfaces.
To maintain the vintage look, simply dust the vessel periodically with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers, which could damage the textured surface.
The Sewu vessel features a sculptural, tapered silhouette that makes it a substantial focal point. While it fits well on most standard bookshelves, we recommend measuring your shelf height to ensure the piece has enough clearance to showcase its elegant, layered design.
Yes. Because each vessel is handcrafted by Indonesian artisans, slight variations in the texture, color, and shape are expected. These nuances are part of the piece's character and ensure that your vessel is truly one-of-a-kind.
The finish is matte and textured, designed to mimic the look of aged stone or historical architecture. It provides a soft, organic feel that complements both contemporary and traditional interiors.
