Full details
The LSA Metropole Vilnius Vase is an ideal decor piece for design enthusiasts and collectors of Brutalist-inspired home accessories who value artisanal craftsmanship. This 28 cm vase serves as a bold, geometric centerpiece for floral arrangements or as a standalone architectural sculpture; however, potential buyers should note that the handmade mouth-blown process results in unique, subtle variations and occasional air bubbles, meaning no two pieces are perfectly identical.

FAQs
Is the LSA Metropole Vilnius Vase dishwasher safe?
No, this vase should be hand-washed only to preserve the integrity and finish of the handmade glass.
Why does my vase have small air bubbles?
Air bubbles are a standard, expected feature of the mouth-blown glass process, confirming that each piece is handcrafted.
What is the height of the vase?
The LSA Metropole Vilnius Vase stands at 28 cm tall.
Can this vase hold heavy stems?
Yes, its solid construction and weighted base provide excellent support for heavy or tall floral arrangements.
Are all Vilnius vases identical?
No, because they are mouth-blown by master craftsmen, every vase will feature unique, subtle variations.
Troubleshooting
Visible air bubbles in the glass
These are a natural result of the mouth-blown manufacturing process and are intended to be a characteristic of each unique piece.
Surface water marks or clouding
Clean the interior and exterior with a mixture of water and a small amount of white vinegar, then polish with a lint-free cloth.
Difficulty cleaning narrow geometric angles
Use a soft-bristled bottle brush or a cloth wrapped around a non-metallic dowel to reach into the architectural corners.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your LSA Metropole Vilnius Vase, follow these guidelines:
- Placement: Place on a level, scratch-resistant surface. Given the vase's geometric form, avoid high-traffic edges where it might be easily bumped.
- Cleaning: Hand wash only using lukewarm water and a mild detergent. Avoid harsh abrasive sponges that could scratch the surface of the glass.
- Maintenance: Do not use the dishwasher, as thermal shock or mechanical impact can damage the handmade glass structure.
- Handling: Always lift the vase by its base rather than the rim to prevent accidental dropping and to support its weight properly.
