Quail in England crafts each vase from stoneware and hand-paints the leopard pattern. The vase stands 26 cm tall, making it ideal for large bouquets of roses, peonies, or branches. The weight of the stoneware ensures stability even when filled with water and heavy stems. The surface is glazed, so it is dishwasher safe.
The leopard sits on its hind legs with an open mouth serving as the vase opening. The pattern is painted with brown and black spots on a beige base. Quail’s animal vases are produced in small batches, so there may be slight variations in the placement of spots from vase to vase.
Care and maintenance
The vase is dishwasher safe, but hand washing will extend the life of the hand-painted surface. Be sure to dry the leopard’s ears and legs thoroughly after washing.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Quail’s leopard vase and giraffe vase?
The leopard vase is 26 cm tall with a wider opening, while the giraffe is 29 cm tall with a narrower neck. The leopard is better suited for large, bushy bouquets, whereas the giraffe fits long, slender stems like tulips or lilies.
Can the leopard vase be placed outdoors on the terrace during summer?
The stoneware can technically withstand outdoor use, but Quail recommends indoor placement. Frost can damage the glaze, and direct sunlight may fade the hand-painted colors over time.
How heavy a bouquet can the vase hold without tipping over?
The vase weighs about 800 grams empty and has a wide base. It remains stable with bouquets up to 1 kg, equivalent to 15-20 large roses with leaves. Filling the vase with water further increases stability.
Is the leopard vase a good housewarming gift?
Yes, Quail’s animal vases are popular housewarming gifts because they are both decorative and functional. The leopard suits modern and eclectic interiors and can be used immediately with a welcome bouquet.
Why does the placement of spots vary from vase to vase?
Quail hand-paints each leopard, so no two vases are exactly alike. These variations are a hallmark of the craftsmanship and make each vase unique. The basic shape and colors are consistent across all.

Handmade & unique product
Most of my products are handmade or hand-painted. This means that there may be variations in color, finish, and minor imperfections. These variations are a natural part of the handmade look and make each product unique. Minor differences are therefore not considered defects.
