This large elephant vase is made from fired stoneware and hand-painted by ceramic artists at Quail in England. Its 28 cm height suits both long stems like tulips and shorter flowers such as ranunculus. The opening at the top measures about 8 cm in diameter. The stoneware is fired at high temperature, making the vase waterproof and durable for everyday use.
Quail has specialized in hand-painted animal vases since 1991. Each elephant is painted individually, so color tones and details vary from vase to vase. The paint is glazed and kiln-fired, ensuring it withstands normal handling. The vase weighs around 800 grams and stands stable on any surface.
Care and maintenance
Wipe the vase with a damp cloth. Avoid dishwashers, as high temperatures can wear down the hand-painted surface over time. Rinse the inside with lukewarm water between flower changes.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the Quail elephant vase and ceramic vases from Rice?
The Quail elephant vase is hand-painted stoneware with natural variations, while Rice typically produces ceramics in larger series with uniform prints. The Quail vase is heavier and thicker in material. Rice vases often feature more graphic patterns, whereas Quail focuses on realistic animal details.
Can the elephant vase hold water for fresh flowers?
Yes, the vase is fired at high temperature and glazed inside, making it 100% waterproof. You can use it for fresh flowers with water without any issues. Change the water every 2-3 days to keep the flowers fresh.
How do I clean the elephant vase without damaging the paint?
Wipe the outside with a damp cloth or sponge. Avoid abrasive powders and harsh brushes. The inside can be rinsed with lukewarm water and mild dish soap. Let the vase air dry with the opening facing down on a clean kitchen towel.
Is the Quail elephant vase a good housewarming gift?
Yes, the vase makes a great housewarming gift, especially for those who appreciate handmade ceramics and animals. It’s practical for flowers and decorative at the same time. Pair it with a bouquet of fresh flowers so the recipient can use it right away.
Why are Quail vases hand-painted instead of mass-produced?
Quail is a family-run company in England that has focused on craftsmanship over mass production since 1991. Hand-painting gives each vase character and unique small details that printed patterns can’t achieve. It takes longer, but the result is a vase with more depth and personality.
