Vintage Ceramic Luminary Vase Turquoise Green Reactive Glaze Cut Out

Add a touch of vintage charm and atmospheric light to your home with this eye-catching ceramic luminary vase. Featuring a striking spherical design with multiple circular cut-outs, this piece truly comes alive when lit from within.

The exterior boasts a vibrant reactive glaze that blends shades of turquoise green and blue, dramatically highlighted with rich brown and ochre accents around the cut-outs and textured areas. The interior features a contrasting smooth, deep blue glaze. This style, with its distinctive cut-outs and glaze, is reminiscent of popular decorative ceramics sold by retailers like Pier 1 Imports in the past.

Simply place a strand of battery-powered LED fairy lights inside (lights not included) to transform it into a captivating luminary. It casts beautiful patterns of light, creating a warm and inviting ambience perfect for cosy corners, shelves, or as a table centrepiece.

Alternatively, its unique form makes it a decorative statement piece on its own, or it can be used to hold dried botanicals (though not suitable for fresh flowers requiring water due to the cut-outs).
