Description
Our medium urn vase brings a classic silhouette to the shelf, mantel or dining table. Shaped with a rounded body that tapers towards a narrow neck and finished with a pair of looping side handles, it recalls the traditional pottery forms that have furnished British homes for generations. Standing 29cm tall and measuring 29cm across, it holds its own as a single piece or as part of a grouping of vases at differing heights.
The ceramic body carries a warm brown glaze that shifts subtly across the surface, catching the light where the curve is fullest and settling deeper in the recesses. Left empty, the vase reads as a sculptural object in its own right, and the handles give it a sense of weight and purpose on an open bookshelf or sideboard. Fill it with tall dried grasses, pampas or eucalyptus and the shape frames the stems neatly, keeping them upright through the narrow neck. It suits a hallway console, a fireplace surround or the centre of a farmhouse table, and pairs happily with linen, aged wood and stoneware.
Being ceramic, the vase is sturdy and easy to keep. Wipe the outside with a soft damp cloth and dry it well to preserve the glaze. We suggest using it with dried or faux stems, or adding a slim liner if you wish to display fresh flowers, as this protects the finish over time. Set it on a felt pad to guard wooden surfaces from scuffs.

Frequently Asked
What is this vase made from?
It is made from ceramic with a warm brown glaze. The material gives it a solid, weighty feel and a smooth finish that varies gently across the surface.
How should I style it?
The urn shape works well on its own as a decorative object, or with dried grasses, pampas and tall foliage. Group it with other vases of different heights for an easy display.
Will it fit on a mantel or console?
At 29cm tall and 29cm wide it is a medium size that sits comfortably on a mantelpiece, sideboard or console table without crowding the space.
Can I use it with fresh flowers?
We recommend dried or faux stems, or adding a slim waterproof liner for fresh flowers, which keeps water away from the glazed interior.
How do I clean it?
Wipe the outer surface with a soft damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners so the glaze stays looking its best.
