Ponderosas Multi 17 in. Vase

The contemporary spotted pattern is designed to serve as a room's focal point. To achieve a balanced and intentional look, our stylists recommend placing this vase against neutral backdrops—such as a gray accent cabinet or a white mantel—to let the multi-color finish pop. You can further enhance its presence by layering it with other decorative accents of varying heights, such as smaller metallic trays or sculptural books.

For households with active pets or children, stability is a primary concern. Because this piece features equal 17-inch height, width, and depth, it possesses a low center of gravity and a wide, sturdy base. Unlike tall, narrow vases that are easily tipped, this substantial silhouette is much more difficult to knock over, making it a practical but elegant addition to high-traffic areas like living room coffee tables.

Yes, its 17-inch square profile makes it an excellent centerpiece. However, when decorating a dining area, it is important to consider the "sightline rule." At 17 inches tall before adding florals, this vase may sit at eye level and could obstruct conversation across the table. For dinner parties, we suggest moving it to a sideboard or buffet to provide vertical interest, or filling it with shorter, airier elements that maintain an open feel across the table.

This piece is highly versatile and functions beautifully as a standalone sculptural object. Given its 17-inch height and contemporary style, it is perfectly suited for year-round decor using dried elements like tall pampas grass, architectural willow branches, or silk florals. Using dried or faux elements also eliminates concerns about water maintenance or the potential porosity of decorative ceramic materials.

To preserve the multi-color contemporary finish, our expertise in furniture care suggests regular dusting with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to prevent buildup. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive pads, which can scratch or dull the spotted pattern over time. If a deeper clean is required, a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap is generally sufficient for maintaining its artisan appearance.

A general rule for professional styling is that a vase should be about one-third to one-half the height of the floral arrangement it holds. This vase, standing 17 inches tall with a matching 17-inch width, is a substantial statement piece. Its large footprint makes it ideal for anchoring a wide dining table centerpiece or a grand entryway console where smaller accents might be overshadowed by the scale of the room.

While most table vases are single-piece accents, our product data indicates that some customer assembly is required for this specific model. This typically involves securing the vessel to its base or attaching integrated decorative components. If you choose our full-service delivery, most items are set up for you; however, for smaller decorative pieces, we provide clear instructions to ensure your new accent is ready for display in minutes.
