The 30cm scale is generous enough to anchor a side table or fireplace surround on its own, without needing a styled grouping to make sense.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\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\n      \u003crect x=\"1\" y=\"5\" width=\"16\" height=\"11\" rx=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/rect\u003e\n      \u003cpath d=\"M5 5V4a3 3 0 0 1 6 0v1\"\u003e\u003c\/path\u003e\n    \u003c\/svg\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe Marrakesh is part of our wider \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.charlestedhome.co.uk\/collections\/pots-and-vases\" title=\"Shop our full pots and vases collection\"\u003epots and vases collection\u003c\/a\u003e — pair it with our cream ceramic urns and natural-fibre baskets for a layered display of contrasting materials and tones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"suits-row\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"suits-tag\"\u003eBohemian\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"suits-tag\"\u003eMediterranean\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"suits-tag\"\u003eModern Country\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"suits-tag\"\u003eIndustrial\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"suits-tag\"\u003eEclectic\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"suits-tag\"\u003eContemporary\u003c\/span\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"faq\"\u003e\n    \u003cp class=\"faq-label\"\u003eGood to know\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n      \u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eCan I use the Marrakesh with fresh flowers or water?\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eThe Marrakesh isn't watertight and shouldn't be filled with water directly.
