The crackle is the character: a fine web of lines running through the surface that catches the light and gives the white real depth rather than a flat, modern brightness. Fill it with narcissi, tulips or a loose armful of garden stems and the long neck holds them upright without arranging; leave it empty on a mantelpiece or windowsill and it stands perfectly well as a sculptural object.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr class=\"divider\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"section-label\"\u003eWhat sets it apart\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"section-heading\"\u003eThe detail that makes it different\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"section-body\"\u003eA plain white vase disappears; this one holds its place. \u003cstrong\u003eThe amphora shape does the work — a full, generous belly narrowing into a tall neck, which is exactly the profile that supports long stems and stops a bouquet splaying open the way it does in a straight-sided vase\u003c\/strong\u003e. The two handles are more than decorative: they make a 2.1-litre vase full of water genuinely easy to lift and carry from sink to sill. The crackle glaze varies subtly from piece to piece, so no two vases carry quite the same pattern of lines, and its softened white sits comfortably against every palette from limewash to deep green. Small foam pads on the base protect the surface it stands on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"collection-callout\"\u003e\n\u003csvg width=\"18\" height=\"18\" viewbox=\"0 0 18 18\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"#8b6f4e\" stroke-width=\"1.2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" style=\"flex-shrink:0;margin-top:2px;\"\u003e\u003crect rx=\"1\" height=\"11\" width=\"16\" y=\"5\" x=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/rect\u003e\u003cpath d=\"M5 5V4a3 3 0 0 1 6 0v1\"\u003e\u003c\/path\u003e\u003c\/svg\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePart of our vases and pots range — group with other pieces from our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/pots-and-vases\" title=\"Shop ceramic pots and vases at CharlesTed Home\"\u003eceramic pots and vases\u003c\/a\u003e collection for a warm, collected shelf or mantel display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"suits-row\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"suits-tag\"\u003eModern Rustic\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"suits-tag\"\u003eWabi-Sabi\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"suits-tag\"\u003eCoastal\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"suits-tag\"\u003eFarmhouse\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"suits-tag\"\u003eClassic\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"suits-tag\"\u003eContemporary\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003chr class=\"divider\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-label\"\u003eGood to know\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eWhat size is it?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eThe vase stands 23cm tall and measures 25cm by 20.5cm across including the handles, with a 13cm base, a 12cm neck and a 10.5cm opening.

Please note that stoneware is a porous material, so we can't guarantee the vase is fully watertight over time. We'd always recommend standing it on a coaster, placemat or cloth before setting it on a table, shelf or any other surface, and checking underneath from time to time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eWill each vase look the same?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eNo. A crackle glaze forms its own pattern of fine lines as it cools, so the density and direction of the crackle differ from vase to vase, as does the depth of tone.
