Black Wooden Vase – NATRE

Carbonized wood is solid wood that has been heat-treated (charred under controlled flame) until the surface darkens to a deep matte black. The black is not paint or stain — it is the wood itself, which means the colour will not chip, peel, or fade over time. The grain underneath remains visible, giving each vase its own unique pattern.

No. Natre is designed for dried flowers, pampas grass, dried branches, or as a sculptural standalone piece. Adding water would damage both the carbonized surface and the wood underneath. If you want fresh blooms in a similar form, drop a small glass test tube or sealed plastic insert inside the opening before adding water and stems.

Two sizes: Small at 28 × 11.5 cm (1.3 kg) and Large at 35 × 15 cm (2.4 kg). The Small fits beside a stack of books on a bookshelf, on a mantel, or on a console. The Large reads as a centrepiece on a coffee table or dining table, or as a single floor-near accent in a corner. The substantial weight means it will not tip even with tall dried branches.

Each vase is hand-shaped and hand-charred, so no two are identical. You will see slight variations in grain pattern, finish darkness, and surface texture — these are characteristic of the carbonization process, not defects. If you order two for a matching pair on a console, they will read as a set without being literal twins.

Dust with a dry soft cloth or a soft brush — that is all that is needed for normal indoor use. Do not use water, soap, oil, or wood polish — these can dull the matte carbonized finish. If the surface ever feels rough after years of use, a single light pass with a fine soft cloth is enough.

Pampas grass, dried lotus pods, eucalyptus branches, lagurus (bunny tail) and dried wheat all work beautifully against the matte black. Pale neutrals — cream, beige, dusty pink — pop most against the dark surface. For a Japandi look, use a single tall branch rather than a full bouquet.

Delivery is 25–40 days by sea freight to our EU hub, plus 2–5 days last-mile within Latvia and the rest of the EU. Returns are accepted within 30 days if the vase arrives damaged or does not match your space — we cover the return shipping for damaged-on-arrival cases.
