Know before you buy
Because each piece is mouth-blown in Portugal, there will be subtle variations in the glass tint, thickness, and exact shape. These unique characteristics are a natural result of the artisanal process and ensure that no two vases are identical.
Yes, the vase is fully waterproof and designed to hold water for fresh floral arrangements. Its food-safe glass construction also makes it a versatile option for creative table settings.
We recommend hand-washing the vase with mild soap and warm water. Because the glass is fragile and features delicate facets, avoid using abrasive scrubbers or placing it in the dishwasher.
The matte finish provides a soft, sophisticated texture that diffuses light rather than reflecting it harshly. When combined with the vase’s angled facets, it creates a subtle, dynamic play of shadow and light that changes depending on your room's lighting.
With a width of 6.5 inches and a height of 10.2 inches, the vase has a substantial base that provides good stability for standard bouquets. However, due to the nature of mouth-blown glass, it is best to avoid placing extremely heavy or top-heavy branches that could compromise its balance.
