Know before you buy
The TECO Four Buttress Vase is fully watertight. You can safely use it for fresh floral arrangements without worrying about leaks or moisture damage to your surfaces.
The vase features a sophisticated satin glaze. It offers a smooth, matte-leaning finish that feels refined to the touch and provides a subtle, non-reflective sheen that highlights the geometric lines of the design.
While the buttress design creates unique architectural crevices, the interior remains a standard cylindrical shape. You can easily clean the inside with a standard bottle brush, though you may need a soft cloth to gently wipe dust from the exterior angles.
Because of its 9.5-inch height and geometric structure, this vase is ideal for architectural stems like calla lilies, tall grasses, or single-branch displays. The buttress design provides a sturdy base that balances well with vertical, minimalist arrangements.
This piece is a high-quality reproduction inspired by the original Teco art pottery designs. It is crafted to honor the aesthetic and architectural influence of Frank Lloyd Wright’s era while being produced with modern manufacturing standards.
