Lionel French Provincial Floor Vase, Aged Stone Urn 56cm
30-day money back guarantee
Examples of Château Living
Weathered grey stone, an amphora curve, and a wide mouth that takes bare winter branches without a fuss.
Lionel is a tall floor vase made from cast magnesia composite and finished to read like old weathered stone. The surface carries a chalky grey patina with darker mineral shading low on the body, the kind of ageing you find on a garden urn left out through a few seasons. The mouth flares wide, the shoulder is full, and the form draws in to a narrow foot.
At 56.5cm tall it sits as a floor piece beside a fireplace, in an entry, or at the end of a console where it has room around it. It suits long bare branches, dried grasses or pampas, and looks settled left empty. The neck is wide enough for a generous armful of stems.
Why we love it
- ◆ Old-stone character, the weathered grey finish reads like a salvaged garden urn rather than something new.
- ◆ Cast magnesia composite, hand-finished so the patina and shading sit slightly differently on every piece.
- ◆ Floor height at 56.5cm, ready to fill a bare corner with branches or stand on its own.
- ◆ Wabi and French country both, it suits a pared-back room as easily as a layered provincial one.

How to style it
Lionel is built to anchor a corner. A few ways to place it:
- Fill it with tall curly willow or bare branches and let it stand alone near your other vases
- Group it low with a planter or two and a trailing stem for a garden-room corner
- Set it in an entryway against a plain wall where the silhouette can read
- Leave it empty through summer, the form holds its own
Stylist's Tip Stand it on bare floorboards rather than a rug. The weathered grey wants a little contrast underneath, and timber or stone lets the patina do the talking.
Care & Keeping
Dust gently with a soft dry cloth. Keep Lionel indoors or under cover outside, magnesia composite can take on water and is best kept clear of frost and pooling rain. Lift rather than drag it, and sit it on felt pads if it stands on a finished floor.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can it go outside?
Best indoors or somewhere sheltered like a covered porch. Magnesia composite can absorb water, so keep it clear of frost and standing rain for the longest life.
What decor does it suit?
French country, provincial and pared-back wabi rooms all take it well. The aged-stone finish bridges rustic and refined.
How big is it?
56.5cm tall with a 35cm widest point, so it sits around knee height as a floor vase, taller again once you add branches.
Will mine look exactly like the photos?
Close, not identical. Each piece is hand-finished, so patina, shading and texture vary a little from vase to vase.
Can I put water in it?
It is made as a decorative vase for dried and faux stems. For fresh flowers, drop a slim waterproof liner or jar inside rather than filling it directly.
Because Lionel is hand-finished, slight variations in patina, texture and grain are natural and add to the character of each piece. Colour may also vary slightly between screens, all photography is taken in natural light.
