Product Information

Full details

This Completedworks Unearthed Vase in Black is designed for art enthusiasts and interior decorators seeking unique, sculptural pieces. Its key benefit is its striking conceptual design that adds a dramatic, artistic focal point to any space. A potential caveat is its deliberately imperfect, textured surface which may not suit minimalist aesthetics. This vase is a collaboration with artist Ekaterina Bazhenova Yamasaki, part of a collection that pushes traditional ceramic boundaries with a theme-based approach, focusing on expressive texture and form.

FAQs

Is this vase suitable for holding fresh flowers?

Yes, the vase can hold water and fresh flowers. However, its sculptural form might affect the presentation of very slender stems. It is often best appreciated as a standalone art piece.

How is the textured surface created?

The textured surface is a deliberate design choice, resulting from the artist's production process, which includes presses, dents, and imperfections to give the vase a sense of movement and life.

What are the dimensions of the vase?

Specific dimensions can vary slightly due to the handmade nature of the piece. Please refer to the product's detailed specifications page for exact measurements.

Is the matte black finish durable?

The matte black finish is designed for aesthetic appeal. Gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is recommended to maintain its appearance and avoid damage.

Can I use this vase outdoors?

This vase is intended for indoor use. Exposure to outdoor elements may affect the material and finish over time.

What makes this vase a 'conceptual' piece?

It's considered conceptual because it challenges traditional ceramic forms and production methods, focusing on artistic expression, texture, and sculptural qualities rather than purely functional utility.

Troubleshooting

Vase appears uneven or unstable

Ensure the vase is placed on a flat, stable surface. The unevenness is a design feature; check that it's not tilting excessively due to an uneven placement area.

Matte finish seems dull or marked

Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth. If a mild soap solution was used, ensure all residue is removed with a clean damp cloth and dried thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Water seeping through (unlikely for glazed ceramic)

Ensure the interior is completely dry before filling. If persistent issue arises, contact customer support as this may indicate a manufacturing defect.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Unique and artistic sculptural design
  • High-quality matte black ceramic material
  • Collaborative artistic vision
  • Adds a dramatic focal point to decor
  • Intentionally imperfect surface adds character

Cons

  • May not suit minimalist or perfectly smooth aesthetic preferences
  • Deliberately imperfect surface requires careful handling
  • Primarily decorative, may have limited functionality for certain floral arrangements due to sculptural form
  • As a conceptual art piece, the price point may be higher than traditional vases

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This vase requires no assembly. Simply remove it from its packaging and place it in your desired location.

Compatibility: The vase is compatible with various interior design styles, particularly modern, contemporary, and artistic spaces. It is suitable for holding water for floral arrangements, though its sculptural nature means some slender stems might not stand as upright as in a traditional vase.

Care:

  • To clean, use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the matte finish and textured surface.
  • For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly on a damp cloth, followed immediately by a rinse with a clean, damp cloth and thorough drying.
  • Handle with care to avoid chipping or scratching the ceramic, especially around the textured areas.
  • Ensure the vase is completely dry before storing or moving it.
