Looking for a timeless, versatile vase to elevate your floral arrangements or home decor? Our 20″ Tall Terra Cotta Vase blends rustic charm with practical functionality—crafted from authentic terra cotta, designed with convenient handles, and built to hold water, making it perfect for fresh blooms, dried flowers, or standalone display.
Why This Terra Cotta Vase Stands Out
1. 📏 Perfect Size for Statement & Function
With a 20″ height, 4.25″ opening, and 8″ width (plus handles), it’s sized to make a subtle statement without overwhelming your space:
- The tall, slender shape (20″ tall) works beautifully for long-stemmed flowers (roses, lilies, sunflowers) or tall dried branches (eucalyptus, pampas grass).
- The 4.25″ opening keeps arrangements neat and focused, while the 8″ wide body (with handles) adds stability—no risk of tipping, even with full, heavy blooms.
- Weighs 8.8 lbs (sturdy enough for daily use, but not too heavy to move when rearranging decor).
2. 🌿 Authentic Terra Cotta Material
Made from genuine terra cotta, this vase has a warm, earthy texture that brings a touch of nature indoors. Terra cotta’s natural porousness (balanced by its watertight design) complements both fresh and dried arrangements:
- For fresh flowers: The watertight construction holds water securely, keeping blooms hydrated longer (no leaks on tables or shelves).
- For dried flowers/branches: The rustic terra cotta finish enhances the organic, cozy vibe of dried botanicals, perfect for boho, farmhouse, or Mediterranean-style decor.
3. ✋ Convenient Handles for Easy Moving
Built-in side handles make it simple to lift, reposition, or refill with water—no more struggling to grip a smooth, slippery vase. The handles also add a classic, vintage-inspired detail that elevates the vase’s design, making it look intentional even when empty.
4. 🌈 Unique Color Variation
The vase’s color shifts slightly depending on light reflection—warm terracotta hues deepen in soft indoor light and brighten in natural sunlight. This subtle variation means no two vases are identical, adding a one-of-a-kind touch to your decor.

Care Tips for Terra Cotta
- For Fresh Flowers: Change water every 2–3 days to keep blooms fresh; wipe the exterior with a damp cloth if water spills (avoid harsh detergents, as they can dull the terra cotta finish).
- Long-Term Care: If using for dried arrangements, dust regularly with a soft brush. If the vase becomes stained (from water or flower stems), gently scrub the interior with a soft sponge and mild soap, then air-dry completely.
