Description
The Nilgaut Vase is a tall, rounded aluminium vase in a nickel finish, standing 28cm high and 16cm in diameter. Its upper band is finely ribbed with close horizontal lines, while the lower body is hammered all over into shallow dimples that catch and scatter the light. The two textures meet in a clean line around the vase, and the base curves softly inward, so the shape feels gentle rather than rigid. At 1.45KG it has a solid, substantial feel in the hand.
We see it indoors on a mantelpiece, a sideboard, a hallway console or a bedside table, anywhere a bunch of dried grasses, pampas, eucalyptus or faux blooms would sit well. The nickel tone sits comfortably beside both warm wood and cool grey, and the bright metallic surface brings a little sparkle to a dim corner or a darker shelf. At 28cm tall it suits a generous handful of stems, with room for longer dried pieces to arch out above the rim. It also makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves dried arrangements, since there is no water to change or spill.
Each vase is handmade, so every piece is unique: the hammered dimples and the fine ribbing vary a little from one to the next, and yours will carry its own pattern. The body is aluminium with the nickel colour on the outside, and a darker grey interior shows at the rim. This vase is made for artificial and dried flowers only, so it is not one for water or fresh-cut stems. For a practical finishing touch, arrange your dried stems loosely, then turn the vase now and then until the side you like best faces the room.
