FAQs
How is the cracked finish created?
The crackle effect is achieved through a traditional Chinese glass-making technique where the mouth-blown glass is plunged into ice-cold water immediately after being formed, then returned to the oven to set the cracks permanently and reinforce the glass.
Is the vase truly watertight?
Yes, despite the cracked appearance, the vase is sealed and designed to be watertight for holding fresh flowers. The crackling is a surface treatment.
Can I put this vase in a dishwasher?
No, it is strictly hand-wash only. Dishwashers can damage the delicate glass and the unique finish.
Will the cracks get bigger over time?
No, the technique used seals the cracks, making them a permanent part of the vase's design and structural integrity.
Are there other colors or sizes available?
The POLSPOTTEN Ball Body vases are available in a family of colors and sizes. Please check other product listings for available options.
How should I handle the vase to avoid damage?
Grip the vase firmly but gently, avoiding excessive pressure on the cracked areas. Place it on a stable surface to prevent accidental falls.
Troubleshooting
Vase arrived with chips or significant cracks beyond the intended finish.
Inspect the vase immediately upon arrival. If there is damage beyond the artistic crackle effect, contact customer support with photographic evidence for a resolution.
Water leaking from the vase.
Ensure the vase is properly sealed and that the cracks are purely superficial as intended. If a leak persists, it may indicate a structural issue. Contact customer support.
Color appears different from expected.
Due to the gradient finish and hand-blown nature, color variations are normal. Lighting conditions can also affect perceived color. Refer to product images for typical variations.
