{"product_id":"irving-green-fish-stoneware-vase-22cm-multi","title":"Irving Green Fish Stoneware Vase 22cm - Multi","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a stoneware vase in the shape of a fish, stood upright on its tail so that the open mouth becomes the opening at the top. It is painted by hand and multicoloured, with a body of round spots, each ringed by a fine painted line, a glossy head with a round eye, raised fins on both sides and a flared tail that forms the foot. At 22cm tall, 11cm long and 7.5cm wide it is a small vase, not a floor piece: the right size for a few stems or a single branch, and slim enough for a narrow shelf. It weighs 0.45KG, so it is easy to move from room to room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe would put it where people can see it up close: on a bookcase among books and small ceramics, on a mantelpiece, a desk or a side table. The fish shape and painted spots bring a playful note, so it suits a family living room, a hallway console or a bedroom shelf, and anyone who likes a little humour in their home. A narrow mouth like this one holds stems upright, so a handful of branches needs very little arranging. Left empty, it stands perfectly well as a decorative object, and it makes a cheerful gift for someone who collects ceramics or loves the sea.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStoneware is a dense clay fired at a high temperature, which gives a hard, solid body, and every part of the decoration here is painted by hand, so the brushstrokes show in the spots and along the fins. It is not dishwasher safe, so clean it by hand. It is not for the microwave or the oven either. For styling, let it be the one patterned piece on a shelf of plainer objects, or give it a single leafy branch so the fish outline stays clear; the styling props shown are not included.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e22cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100% Stoneware\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMulti\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHandpainted\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDishwasher safe\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMicrowave safe\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOven safe\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.45KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the Irving vase?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is made of 100% stoneware, a dense fired clay, and the fish decoration is painted by hand, so the brushwork shows in the finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow big is the vase?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is 22cm tall, 11cm long and 7.5cm wide, and weighs 0.45KG, so it sits comfortably on a shelf, a desk or a mantelpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it go in the dishwasher?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. The maker states it is not dishwasher safe, so clean it by hand.
