Description
Our medium amphora vase takes its cue from classical urn shapes, with a rounded body that tapers gently towards the base and a narrowed neck that opens at the mouth. Made from ceramic and finished in a clean white glaze, it has a smooth surface that catches the light softly rather than shining hard. Standing 22cm tall and measuring 21cm across, it holds its own on a shelf or table without crowding the space around it. This is one of those vases that works whether it is full or empty.
The amphora form suits both loose seasonal stems and a single sculptural branch, and the narrower neck helps gather flowers into a natural fall rather than letting them splay. Fill it with dried grasses, eucalyptus or foraged twigs for a relaxed look, or keep it bare as a rounded ceramic shape on a mantelpiece, sideboard or windowsill. The white glaze sits easily against wood, stone and painted walls, so it settles into most rooms without asking for attention. Group it with taller or shorter vases for a layered arrangement.
Ceramic is sturdy for everyday use, though it deserves a little care as any glazed piece would. Wipe the outside with a soft damp cloth and dry it to keep the glaze looking fresh. If you use it for fresh flowers, rinse the inside between arrangements to prevent residue building up. Keep it away from knocks against hard edges, as ceramic can chip. With gentle handling it will stay looking good for years.
