Know before you buy
Because the Shrug Vase is hand-built, you can expect subtle differences in the texture, glaze application, and overall silhouette. These variations are intentional and define the unique character of your specific piece.
The vase is crafted from ceramic and is designed to hold water for fresh floral arrangements. However, as with all handmade ceramics, we recommend placing it on a protective surface to prevent any potential moisture rings.
Dust the exterior gently with a soft, dry cloth or a soft-bristled brush to navigate the textured details. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as they may affect the finish of the ceramic.
The Shrug Vase works best as a standalone sculptural object or with a minimal, architectural floral arrangement. Its organic form is designed to be the focal point of a shelf, console, or dining table.
Like any high-quality ceramic, the vase is durable but should be handled with care. It is intended for decorative use and should be placed on a stable, level surface away from high-traffic areas where it could be knocked over.
