To use this vase, simply place your favorite flowers or floral arrangements inside. It can be used on your dining table, coffee table, or any other surface to enhance the look of your room. When it comes to cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe the outside of the vase. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scrubbing too hard, as this could damage the glass. Since it's hand-blown and may have some delicate parts, handle it with care to prevent any accidental breakage. If you choose to have it posted, make sure to check it upon arrival for any shipping damages.
