At 40 cm high, this vase has enough scale to work directly on the floor, where its deep red glaze can bring color and texture into a quieter corner. It sits especially well beside a low lounge chair, on parquet, sisal, or stone, and also works near a fireplace or console where the height helps balance lower furniture. The rich lava surface adds warmth to clean modern interiors and pairs beautifully with teak, lacquered surfaces and earthy textiles.
