Care Instructions

Vintage and antique items are delicate and require special care. If necessary, wipe gently with a damp cloth and avoid use of any chemicals. We recommend dried or faux foliage, however if you do decide to pair with fresh flowers, we recommend inserting a pot liner. Ideal for indoor use, however if you do decide to display outside, we would advise drilling a draining hole and be sure to protect from frost
