Houndsworth I Pink Vase

Yes, an acrylic or Lucite vase is an excellent, safer alternative to glass in high-traffic households. Unlike traditional glass, which can shatter into dangerous shards if knocked over, this high-quality thermoplastic is remarkably shatter-resistant and impact-durable. It offers the high-end, crystal-clear aesthetic of glass but with a lightweight and robust construction that better withstands the daily activity of a busy family home.

To keep your vase looking brand new, we recommend a simple "wipe clean" approach using a soft, non-abrasive microfiber cloth. Based on our expertise with these materials, it is important to avoid ammonia-based glass cleaners or harsh chemical sprays, as they can cause acrylic to cloud or develop fine "crazing" over time. For any stubborn spots, a small amount of warm water and mild dish soap is all you need to restore its brilliant transparency.

Absolutely. Because this piece is crafted from Lucite and acrylic, it is naturally non-porous and waterproof. With a 2-inch height, it is specifically designed as a low-profile "bud" or "floating" vase. It is ideal for showcasing short-stemmed blooms, succulent clippings, or even floating tea lights and flower heads, providing a modern decorative touch without the risk of water seeping through to your furniture.

Measuring 6.25 inches wide and only 2 inches tall, this vase is a perfect choice for "low-line" styling. Its low center of gravity makes it exceptionally stable for use on coffee tables, where it adds a pop of mid-century modern color without obstructing sightlines to the television or blocking conversation. It also functions beautifully as a textural accent on shallow bookshelves or as a sophisticated organizer for small items on an entryway console.

This vase embodies the mid-century modern aesthetic through its use of bold, geometric forms and a vibrant "Technicolor" inspired palette. The combination of translucent pink and bronze tones plays with light and transparency, a hallmark of 1950s and 60s experimental design. It serves as a perfect finishing touch to add visual "weight" and period-accurate character to a room featuring tapered furniture legs and clean, organic lines.
