Valentine Fluted Urn Vase with Bird, Antique Gold Metal
30-day money back guarantee
Examples of Château Living
A small fluted urn in aged gold, with a little bird come to rest on the rim.
Valentine is a small urn vase in the old campana shape, a flared mouth above a fluted body and a turned pedestal foot. The metal wears an antique gold finish, dark in the grooves and rubbed back to gold along the ribs, so it reads as something found rather than bought. A small cast bird perches on the rim, head dipped as if about to drink.
It stands about 22 cm tall and measures roughly 15 cm across the mouth, the right size for a side table, a windowsill, or a shelf among books and frames. Fill it with dried stems, faux flowers or a few sprigs of greenery, or leave it empty and let the shape and the bird do the work. It also sits well in a pair or a cluster of mixed heights.

How to style it
A few ways to use it:
- Fill it with dried grasses or faux blooms for a side table or mantel.
- Group it with other vases at mixed heights for a collected look.
- Sit it among garden and outdoor pieces on a covered porch or sunroom.
- Use it empty as a small sculptural object, letting the bird be the detail.
Stylist's Tip Turn the bird to face into the room rather than the wall, and keep the stems loose and a little wild. The urn looks best when the flowers spill past the rim, the way they do in an old still life.
Care & Keeping
Dust with a soft dry cloth. The aged finish is meant to look worn, so a little unevenness is part of the piece. Keep Valentine indoors or under cover, since long exposure to weather will move the patina. For fresh stems, sit a small jar or liner inside rather than filling the urn with water, which protects both the metal and your surface.
Frequently Asked Questions
How big is it?
About 22 cm tall and 15 cm across the flared mouth, on a foot roughly 12 cm wide. A small, side-table size rather than a floor urn.
What is it made of?
Aged metal in an antique gold finish, with a small cast bird on the rim. The dark and gold tones are applied by hand, so each piece sits a little differently.
Can I put fresh flowers and water in it?
It suits dried and faux stems best. For fresh flowers, sit a small jar or liner inside to hold the water, which keeps the metal from marking and protects your surface.
Can it go outside?
It is happiest indoors or under cover. It can sit outside on a covered porch for short spells, but constant sun and rain will move the patina over time.
Will mine look like the photos?
Close, not identical. Valentine is hand-finished, so the antique gold patina varies a little from piece to piece. That variation is part of the look.
Because Valentine is hand-finished, slight variations in patina, texture and tone are natural and add to the unique character of each piece. Colour may also vary slightly between screens, all photography is taken in natural light.
