Description
Our stone hydria pot vase takes its cue from the rounded urns of classical pottery, with a full, bellied body that tapers gently towards a low neck and a broad opening at the top. Made from ceramic in a soft beige tone, it carries a natural stone-like finish that gives the surface a slightly matte, tactile quality rather than a high gloss. At 15cm tall, 21cm wide and 18cm deep, it sits low and wide, so it holds its own on a table without towering over what surrounds it.
The generous shape makes this one of the more versatile vases to style. Fill it with short-stemmed blooms, dried grasses or a loose bunch of eucalyptus and the wide mouth lets stems fan out naturally. Left empty, the rounded form and warm neutral colour work as a quiet decorative object in its own right, so it earns its place on a sideboard, mantelpiece or open shelf year round. The beige tone settles happily into calm, pared-back interiors and warmer earthy schemes alike, pairing well with wood, linen and other stoneware pieces.
Ceramic is a hardwearing choice for everyday use and easy to keep looking its best. Wipe the outside with a soft, damp cloth and dry it off to avoid watermarks on the finish. If you are displaying fresh flowers, add water carefully and rinse the inside between arrangements. Stand it on a level surface away from the edge, as the low, wide base is stable but the ceramic can chip if knocked.

Frequently Asked
What is this vase made from?
It is made from ceramic with a stone-like matte finish in a beige tone, giving it a solid, tactile feel rather than a shiny glaze.
How should I style it?
The wide mouth suits short-stemmed flowers, dried grasses or foliage that can fan out. It also looks complete left empty as a decorative piece.
Will it fit on a shelf or mantelpiece?
Yes. At 15cm tall and 21cm wide it sits low and wide, so it fits comfortably on shelves, sideboards and mantelpieces without dominating the space.
Can I use it with fresh flowers?
You can. Add water carefully and rinse the inside between arrangements. Dry the outside to prevent watermarks on the finish.
How do I clean it?
Wipe the outside with a soft, damp cloth and dry it off. Keep it on a level surface away from the edge, as the ceramic can chip if knocked.
