Slattery Gold Vase

While ceramic is generally excellent at holding water, some decorative finishes can be porous. We recommend testing the vase for 24 hours on a protected surface before placing it directly on fine wood furniture with fresh water. Alternatively, this piece is specifically designed to excel as a decorative accent for high-quality silk florals or dried botanical arrangements.

Ceramic is favored for its durability and opacity. Unlike glass, this ceramic vase completely hides flower stems and water lines, maintaining a clean, "glam" aesthetic even as water levels change. Ceramic is also generally heavier and more stable than thin glass, providing a lower center of gravity that helps prevent accidental tipping.

To preserve the luster of the gold trim and the crisp white ceramic, we recommend dusting regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth. Based on our material care expertise, you should avoid abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners, which can dull the metallic finish over time. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild dish soap and dry immediately.

This vase features a sophisticated leaf pattern and gold trim that fits perfectly within glam or modern-luxe decor. For a cohesive look, our experts recommend pairing it with other metallic accents, such as the Kayview Gold Cocktail Table. To lean into the botanical theme, try styling it with single-stem monstera leaves or dried pampas grass to add vertical interest without overwhelming the intricate gold trim.

A common design rule is that the vase should be roughly one-third to one-half the height of the floral arrangement it holds. This 8-inch tall vase is ideally suited for medium-height bouquets or dried botanicals. Its 6-inch width provides a sturdy footprint, making it a perfect centerpiece for a standard 20-inch to 24-inch side table or a narrow entryway console where space is a priority.

Stability is a key consideration for active households. This vase is crafted from ceramic, which offers more heft than lightweight plastic or thin-gauge glass alternatives. Its square 6x6-inch base provides a balanced foundation for its 8-inch height, making it less likely to be knocked over by a passing pet or curious hands compared to taller, narrower "bud" style vases.

To protect your surfaces from the unglazed ceramic "foot" often found on the bottom of vases, we recommend applying small felt pads or using a decorative coaster. This is particularly important for gold-trimmed items that may be moved frequently across polished wood or glass cocktail tables.
