These impressive pieces stand approximately 20 inches tall and feature a rich, glossy burnt orange/terracotta glaze that catches the light beautifully, paired with distinctive applied braided rope/knot handles that add a nautical yet rustic Tuscan charm.

Marked on the base with the classic “Made in Italy / Vietri” stamp (and a small impressed maker’s mark), these vases embody the artisanal quality Vietri is renowned for. The generous bulbous shape tapers elegantly to a wide rim, making them perfect as floor vases, dramatic entryway statements, or oversized planters (drainage hole not present, so best for decorative use or with a liner).

In excellent vintage condition with no chips, cracks, or repairs — just minor glaze variations and light wear consistent with age and handcrafting, adding to their authentic character.
Ideal for Mediterranean, coastal, bohemian, or traditional interiors. Sold as a pair only — they make a symmetrical, high-impact display on either side of a fireplace, console, or doorway. See less
