FAQs
What are the exact dimensions of the vase?
The vase measures approximately H18cm (height) x Dia.20cm (diameter).
Is the vase waterproof?
The vase is primarily decorative and may not be fully watertight. It is recommended to use a liner or add drainage materials if planting live flowers or plants.
Can this vase be used outdoors?
Yes, it is crafted with a galvanized finish suitable for outdoor use. However, for longevity, especially in harsh climates, bringing it indoors during winter is advisable.
How should I clean the vase?
Wipe gently with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbing tools.
Does the distressed finish mean it's damaged?
No, the distressed look is an intentional design feature, part of its shabby chic and rustic charm. It is not indicative of damage.
What style of flowers or plants suit this vase best?
Wildflowers, country garden blooms, or even simple greenery complement the rustic style well. It's also effective with artificial arrangements.
Are the handles sturdy enough to carry the vase with soil and plants?
The handles are designed for general portability. We recommend supporting the base of the vase when carrying it with heavy soil and plants to ensure stability and prevent undue stress on the handles.
Troubleshooting
Galvanized finish appears too 'new' or uniform
The intended aesthetic is a distressed, rustic look. This can be enhanced over time with natural exposure or by gently buffing specific areas with fine-grit sandpaper or steel wool for a more worn appearance.
Water leaking from the base
This vase is designed as a decorative planter and may not be watertight. To prevent leaks when using with live plants, use a waterproof liner inside the vase or add a layer of gravel at the bottom for drainage.
Print fading
Prolonged direct sunlight can cause fading over time. To minimize this, place the vase in a location with partial shade or bring it indoors during peak sun hours if vibrancy is a priority.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This vase requires no assembly. Simply remove it from its packaging and place it in your desired location.

You may wish to place a plastic liner inside or add a layer of gravel at the bottom.
Compatibility:
The vase is compatible with a wide range of settings, from traditional country gardens to more eclectic outdoor spaces. It can hold cut flowers, artificial arrangements, or be used as a decorative container. Its metallic finish makes it visually adaptable to various color schemes.
Care:
To maintain the appearance and longevity of the vase:
- Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could damage the finish or the printed design.
- For outdoor use, consider bringing the vase indoors during harsh winter months or prolonged periods of extreme weather to prevent potential damage from frost or excessive moisture.
- If rust spots appear on the galvanized finish over time, they can be gently buffed with steel wool or left as part of the intended distressed aesthetic.
