FIDE Corteccia B4/Basilico Vase

Sturdy but delicate with its irregular, vertical ridges, this striking vase is the result of a complex process of handmade craftsmanship that combines paper pulp, fibers, and clay to create a highly-textured material known as paper clay. Marked by a moss green color, this vase will be the perfect centerpiece to a table or console in a contemporary-styled decor. Every one of Paola Paronetto’s creations is unique. Slight variations in shape, colour and size are to be considered a guarantee of authenticity and value. They are finished with non-toxic satin-finish enamels. Although very rarely, it is possible for them to leak after long periods of exposure to water. It is therefore advisable to test their water resistance before using them on delicate surfaces. They should not be used as dining utensils. The white pieces can be washed with water or sanitizing products, whereas the coloured pieces must be treated more gently and cleaned with a feather duster or a soft cloth, dry or moistened very slightly with water.
