Know before you buy
No, this vase is designed exclusively for decorative purposes. Because it is crafted from natural werregue fiber, it is not watertight and should be kept away from moisture to preserve the integrity of the materials.
To keep the vase in top condition, gently dust it with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using water, chemical cleaners, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the natural fibers and the finish of the copper thread.
Each vase is a unique work of art created by Wounaan artisans, so slight variations in the weave pattern and the placement of the copper thread are expected. These subtle differences are a hallmark of the handmade process and ensure your piece is one-of-a-kind.
Given its 39 cm diameter, this vase makes a significant visual impact as a centerpiece on a dining table, console, or sideboard. We recommend placing it in a dry, indoor area away from direct sunlight to prevent the natural fibers from fading or becoming brittle over time.
The vase stands 26 cm tall with a total diameter of 39 cm. The mouth opening measures 16 cm, providing a balanced silhouette that works well as a standalone sculptural object.
