Full Specifications Brand Chelsea House Dimensions 9"W × 6"D × 17"H Weight 7.2 lbs Material Porcelain Finish White glazed ceramic Color White/Cream with Blue Shape Octagonal Design Hand-painted foo dog and lion motifs What Is a Decorative Vase? A decorative vase is a vessel designed primarily for visual impact, whether filled with fresh or dried botanicals or displayed empty as a sculptural accent. Unlike purely functional flower vases, decorative ceramic vases often feature intricate patterns, glazes, and artisan details that make them statement pieces in their own right. What You Get With the Chelsea House Ming Octagonal Ceramic Vase Octagonal Porcelain Construction -- eight-sided profile creates architectural interest and visual depth from every angle. Hand-Painted Foo Dog Motifs -- traditional blue lion guardian designs on white glaze showcase artisan brushwork and cultural heritage. Versatile 17-Inch Height -- sized for mantel displays, console tables, or shelving without overwhelming smaller spaces. Blue and White Palette -- classic chinoiserie colors coordinate with navy, indigo, sage, neutral, and warm wood tones. 7.2-Pound Stability -- substantial porcelain weight prevents tipping on high-traffic surfaces. How Do You Style Decorative Vases on a Mantel? Position this ceramic vase off-center on a mantel, paired with a lower decorative object or stacked books to create asymmetry. Flank it with small brass candlesticks or a framed mirror, then layer in organic shapes from our vases and jars collection for varied heights and textures that draw the eye across the composition. Frequently Asked Questions What is a ginger jar and how do you decorate with it? A ginger jar is a round ceramic vessel with a domed lid, traditionally used for spice storage; this octagonal vase shares the same blue-white aesthetic but offers a sculptural alternative for open shelving and console displays. What type of vase works best for dried flowers? Ceramic and porcelain vases with narrow openings support dried stems securely, while the white glazed finish on this piece provides neutral contrast for pampas, wheat, or eucalyptus arrangements. How do you style decorative vases on a mantel? Use varied heights and asymmetric groupings -- position taller vases off-center, balance with shorter home accents, and leave breathing room between pieces. Is assembly required? No, this vase arrives ready to display. Does LOOMLAN offer free shipping? Yes, LOOMLAN provides free shipping on all orders to the continental USA with no minimum purchase. What goes in a large floor vase besides flowers? Tall branches, curly willow, pampas grass, dried botanicals, or even decorative filler like river stones create year-round displays without fresh water.
