Kersten produces ceramics using traditional craftsmanship in Germany, where each vase is individually cast and glazed. The stoneware is fired at high temperatures, making the material waterproof and resistant to temperature changes. The blue pattern is hand-applied, so shades and details vary from vase to vase. The vase measures 14x14x22 cm and weighs around 600 grams, giving it stability on tables or windowsills.
Care and maintenance
Clean with a soft sponge and mild soapy water. Avoid the dishwasher, as high heat and harsh detergents can wear down the glaze over time.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between stoneware and porcelain for vases?
Stoneware is fired at a higher temperature than porcelain, making it denser and more resistant to impact. Porcelain is finer and lighter but also more fragile. Stoneware has a more rustic surface, while porcelain is typically smooth and glossy.
Can stoneware vases withstand frozen water in winter?
No, even waterproof stoneware can crack if water freezes inside, as ice expands. Completely empty the vase if it is placed in an unheated room during winter.
How many flowers fit in a 22 cm tall vase?
The 14 cm opening fits 5-8 stemmed flowers, depending on thickness. For bushes like eucalyptus or baby's breath, 3-5 sprigs create an airy look.
Is a handmade stoneware vase a good hostess gift?
Yes, a handmade vase from Kersten is a personal and practical hostess gift. It’s timeless, frequently used, and the blue pattern suits most homes. Pair it with a bunch of seasonal flowers for extra charm.
Why does the blue pattern vary from vase to vase?
Kersten applies the glaze by hand before firing, and during the firing process, the minerals in the glaze react differently depending on the kiln position and temperature. This gives each vase a unique expression, even within the same series.
