{"product_id":"plunkett-fold-copper-vase-large-p05477-p00110","title":"Plunkett Fold Copper Vase - Large","description":"The artists' fold-formed copper vases present organic shapes with intricate detail in the natural colors of heated and \u003cspan class=\"glossaryLink\" data-glossary-word=\"verdigris\"\u003everdigrised\u003c\/span\u003e copper. The vases make a statement on their own or in groups, as well as supporting and providing a foil to your flower arrangements.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nFold-forming is the act of folding, hammering, heating, and unfolding metal to create organic-looking shapes that arise from the natural properties of the metal under stress. The folds on these vases are known as Plunkett Folds - a tapered pleat in the metal whose crease is hammered thin until it bows outward in a gentle curve, and pulls the rest of the vase around it into flowing waves. The deep crevice thus created is then accented with a verdigris \u003cspan class=\"glossaryLink\" data-glossary-word=\"patina\"\u003epatina\u003c\/span\u003e. The rest of the color on the vase is the natural effect of heat on copper during the process of forming the vase.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe sides of the vase are cut to shape for each individual piece (they are each unique due to the way the copper waves and deforms in the fold-forming process), and brazed in place, then textured with flowed beads of bronze. Every vase is leveled carefully and tested for water-tightness.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe natural colors, wabi-sabi aesthetic, and unrepeatable form of each piece, make these vases a treasured part of any home.","brand":"David M Bowman and Reed C Bowman","offers":[{"title":"Large","offer_id":46618089685227,"sku":"P05477-P00110","price":640.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0765\/5453\/5147\/files\/449e282b-eed0-4b97-95c3-24fb036616ae_111417_l.jpg?v=1753125233","url":"https:\/\/www.artfulhome.com\/products\/plunkett-fold-copper-vase-large-p05477-p00110","provider":"Artful Home","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
