Know before you buy
No, this vase is not waterproof. It is designed for decorative use only and should not be filled with water or used for fresh floral arrangements.
To maintain the vase, gently dust it with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using water, cleaning agents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the natural werregue palm fibers.
Because every vase is hand-knitted by Wounaan artisans, slight variations in pattern and texture are expected. Each piece is unique, reflecting the individual touch of the maker.
The vase stands 10.63 inches tall with a diameter of 13.39 inches. The opening at the top measures 6.69 inches, making it ideal for displaying dried botanicals or standing alone as a sculptural piece.
The vase is crafted from natural werregue palm fibers, a material central to the heritage of the Wounaan community in Colombia. Using these fibers supports traditional fiber art techniques that have been passed down through generations.
