{"product_id":"souri-stoneware-vase-23cm-brown","title":"Souri Stoneware Vase 23cm - Brown","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Souri is a brown stoneware vase with a shape all its own: a full, rounded lower body that draws in at a gentle waist, swells again at the shoulder and narrows to an open neck. Down one side runs a column of open loops, like a ladder of small rings, which gives it a playful, sculptural outline. It is 23cm tall and 19cm across, a compact size for a shelf or table rather than the floor, and at 1.25KG it has a solid, reassuring weight for a vase of its height.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe like it on a bookcase, a sideboard, a mantelpiece or a console table in the hallway, anywhere it sits near eye level and the loops can be seen in profile. Fill it with a few dried stems, grasses or seed heads, or leave it empty and let its outline do the work; it reads as a small sculpture as much as a vase. It sits happily among books, other ceramics and woven pieces, and suits a warm, earthy living room or a bedroom shelf just as well. It also makes a thoughtful gift for someone who collects ceramics and likes a piece with a little character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is made entirely of stoneware, a dense clay fired at a high temperature, which gives it its weight and its firm, solid feel. The surface is brown flecked with darker speckles and carries a soft sheen that catches the light, and the speckling continues inside the rim. The loops run down one side from the rim almost to the base, so it is worth deciding which way it faces before adding stems. Turn it so the loops sit on the open side of a shelf, where light passes through the rings, and keep any stems tall and sparse so the curves of the body stay in view.\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\u003e23cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e19cm\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\u003eBrown\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.25KG\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 vase?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is made of 100% stoneware, a dense clay fired at a high temperature, which gives it a solid weight of 1.25KG.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow big is it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is 23cm tall and 19cm across, a compact size that suits a bookshelf, sideboard, mantelpiece or console table.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the loops on the side?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThey are a column of open rings running down one side of the vase, a feature of the design that gives it its playful outline.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat would suit it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt suits dried stems, grasses, seed heads or slender branches, and it looks just as good standing empty as a small sculpture on a shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat colour is it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is brown, flecked with darker speckles across the body, with a soft sheen that catches the light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it come with anything else?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo, you receive the vase on its own; the styling props shown, such as the dried stems and books, are not included.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Creative Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53414585139467,"sku":"82060673","price":40.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/00_82060673.jpg?v=1791119863","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/souri-stoneware-vase-23cm-brown","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
