Hexagonal Roses and Butterflies Umbrella Stand

A crackle glazed ceramic umbrella or stick stand decorated with multi coloured butterflies and red and white roses on a pale grey background. This traditional style umbrella stand could also be used as a large vase for dried arrangements of flowers, twigs or branches. This item is slightly distressed ceramic. This means during the manufacturing process slight imperfections have been deliberately created. These give the item an older more ‘antique’ look than it would have if it had been made to be perfect. There may be parts of a design missing, slight bumps or other surface imperfections or irregularities in the glaze. These are meant to give the careworn and well used look of a genuine antique to a recently manufactured product. This distressed finish is not to be regarded as a fault.
