Where to Place a Terracotta Vase

/ 1 min read
Rust-colored terracotta vase with narrow horizontal ridges around its rounded body.
Sillon Vase · 18 cm diameter, 28 cm high.

How to measure a shelf for the Sillon Vase and clean its fluted surface.

Start with the width. Sillon measures 18 cm across, so check the available depth at the narrowest point of the shelf. The vase should sit fully on the surface, even when the shelf has a raised lip or a sloped back.

Next, measure up from the shelf. The vase is 28 cm high without stems. If another shelf sits above it, hold a dried stem at the intended height before choosing the arrangement. A single short stem is an alternative when headroom is tight.

Lift out the dried stems before cleaning. Hold the vase steady on a clear surface and use a soft, dry brush to follow the grooves. Return the stems only after the loose dust has been removed.
