Know before you buy
While the vase is suitable for fresh flowers, the straw marquetry is a natural material. To protect the integrity of the wood and straw, we recommend using a small glass or plastic liner inside the vase to hold water.
Keep the vase away from direct moisture and harsh sunlight to prevent the natural wheat strands from fading or warping. Dust it gently with a soft, dry cloth; avoid using liquid cleaners or abrasive sponges.
No. Because each piece is handcrafted using natural wheat strands, there will be slight variations in the pattern and texture. This ensures that every vase is a unique, one-of-a-kind artisanal item.
The vase is created by applying individual, hand-split wheat strands onto a sturdy wooden base. This meticulous process requires over 40 hours of labor to achieve the intricate, textured finish characteristic of traditional Colombian craftsmanship.
The vase is built on a solid wood base, providing a stable foundation for dried arrangements or smaller floral stems. However, due to its 9-inch height, it is best suited for lightweight or medium-sized bouquets rather than heavy, oversized branches.
