Design & Atmosphere
This small black terracotta vase offers quiet presence and handcrafted character in a compact scale. The etched vine design, applied using a traditional batik method, brings botanical movement to the rounded silhouette while highlighting the artisan’s hand in every line.
Made in the Chulucanas region of Peru, each vase is formed and finished using time-honored techniques. Artisans apply a light clay slip, then remove it after firing with a wooden paleta tool—revealing the pale ecru vinework beneath. The vase’s deep black finish is achieved by smoking the clay with mango leaves, a regional practice that gives each piece its depth and organic patina.
Petite in height but rich in detail, this piece fits effortlessly into tight styling zones—tucked onto a nightstand, worked into a bookshelf vignette, or paired with taller vases on a console for contrast. Its size invites layering while still standing confidently on its own.
The neutral palette and matte texture make it easy to pair with soft linens, warm woods, or creamy ceramics. Whether styled with a few foraged stems or left empty, the vase adds quiet texture and story to any interior moment.
As part of a trio or a single curated accent, this small vessel delivers authenticity and artistry in every curve—proving that great design doesn’t have to take up space to make an impact.
Add the finishing touch to any shelf, surface, or bedside with a handcrafted vase that’s small in scale, but rich in soul.
