Know before you buy
This piece is crafted from earthenware, a traditional ceramic material known for its durability and ability to hold intricate, hand-finished details.
The centerpiece measures approximately 16 inches in diameter and 3 inches in height. It is sized to serve as a substantial focal point on most standard dining or coffee tables.
While the piece is designed primarily as a decorative centerpiece to evoke a tropical aesthetic, its earthenware construction allows it to hold dry items like fruit or decorative objects.
To preserve the finish and intricate details, we recommend cleaning the centerpiece by hand with a soft cloth and mild detergent. Avoid using abrasive scrubbers or placing it in the dishwasher.
Yes, the collection was developed in collaboration with designer Nini Andrade Silva to authentically mimic the textures of the banana tree’s bark, leaves, and stem, resulting in a highly detailed, organic appearance.
