Know before you buy
Because each Nugget Vase is crafted from soft resin by hand, no two pieces are identical. You can expect subtle differences in the distribution of the ruby and purple hues and slight variations in the geometric form, which are intentional characteristics of the Fish Design process.
The soft resin is durable and resilient, but it is not as rigid as glass or ceramic. It is designed to be a decorative object, so it is best suited for stable surfaces like tabletops or shelves where it can be displayed safely.
To maintain the glossy finish, simply wipe the vase with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges, as these can scratch or dull the resin surface.
While the material is water-resistant, the Nugget Vase is primarily an artistic sculpture. If you choose to use it for fresh flowers, we recommend using a small, discreet liner inside to protect the interior resin from potential mineral buildup or staining over time.
Yes, the clear ruby and purple resin reacts beautifully to light. When placed in direct sunlight or near a window, the colors will cast vibrant, saturated shadows and appear more luminous, highlighting the depth of the material.
