The design emphasizes the hands and eyes, with intricate detailing on the headdresses contrasting beautifully against the rough texture of the chamotte clay.

Know before you buy
While the interior features a transparent matte glaze, the vase is primarily designed as a decorative object. We recommend using it for dried floral arrangements rather than fresh water-filled bouquets to protect your surfaces.
The exterior is crafted from raw chamotte clay, which has a porous, textured surface. Gently dust it with a soft, dry cloth; avoid using water or cleaning agents, as they may absorb into the clay and cause staining.
No. Because each piece is hand-finished, you should expect slight variations in texture and detailing. These irregularities are intentional and part of what gives each vase its unique character.
Chamotte clay is a fired ceramic material that has been ground down and added back into the clay body. It gives the vase a distinctively rough, tactile, and organic feel that contrasts beautifully with the refined details of the design.
Yes, the chamotte clay is a sturdy, substantial material. The vase has a solid base, making it well-suited for displaying dried branches or sculptural stems.
