{"product_id":"nienna-stoneware-vase-31cm-blue","title":"Nienna Stoneware Vase 31cm - Blue","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a stoneware vase with a shape that refuses to sit still: the body swells and dips as it rises, and the rim runs in an uneven, wavy line rather than a clean circle. It stands 31cm tall and 25.5cm across, a generous size for a floor, a sideboard or a hearth, and the blue glaze is laid on in bands and patches, speckled and pitted in places, so the surface looks different from every side. Made entirely of stoneware, it weighs 3.102KG, which tells you it is a solid piece and not a thin decorative shell.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt this height it suits tall arrangements: long dried grasses, branches or faux stems that need a heavy base to keep them upright. Place it on a sideboard, a console table or a low stand in a living room or hallway, or set it on the floor beside a chair, and it holds its own without crowding the space. Left empty, the glaze is interesting enough to stand alone on a wide shelf or a deep windowsill. It suits anyone drawn to pottery with an uneven, organic character, and it makes a thoughtful gift for a new home. The styling props shown are not included.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStoneware is fired at high temperatures, which makes it dense, hard and pleasingly heavy in the hand. The glaze wraps the outside of the body and carries over the wavy rim, while a narrow band of bare clay shows at the foot. Its weight works in your favour with top-heavy stems, since a vase this solid gives them a steady base. For the best effect, keep any arrangement loose and taller than the vase itself, and stand it against a plain wall or pale linen, where the blue glaze and its speckled texture show at their best.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e31cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25.5cm\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\u003eBlue\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.102KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the vase made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is made of 100% stoneware, a dense, hard-fired ceramic, glazed in blue with a speckled, textured finish across the outside.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow big is it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt stands 31cm tall and measures 25.5cm across, a generous size for a sideboard, a hearth or the floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow heavy is the vase?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt weighs 3.102KG, so it feels solid and gives tall or top-heavy stems a steady base.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use it for dried flowers?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
