Care instructions
Care instructions
Stand the vase on a coaster or mat — it holds water for fresh flowers (the body is treated to resist seepage), but condensation or slight seepage can occur and the unglazed foot may be a little rough.
Do not add cut-flower food or detergent to the water — surfactants can interfere with the water-resistant treatment. Rinse and dry gently by hand.
Each piece is hand-made, so form, glaze tone, and combing vary — that individuality is the point.
