This material also has a great virtue: it manages to maintain a uniform temperature throughout the vase, maintaining the ideal climate for the plant. Through this intrinsic ability, it is possible to guarantee a constant atmosphere for our plants, cooler in summer (evaporating excess heat through the terracotta walls) and milder in winter (thanks to greater insulation from the cold). Shape At first glance, you can see that this is a vase with a particular shape, supported and raised by a solid support base, decorated with floral elements. But the most characteristic part of the Vase Decorated with Fauns is the central part, with an explosion of floral decorations and festoons that embrace the entire circumference of the vase, alternating with the four particular faun heads, which seem to sing a song that only they can hear. Finishing and processing The Vase Decorated with Fauns Terracotta Impruneta has been worked until obtaining a smooth and pleasant texture to the touch; a process that is completely artisanal and follows the centuries-old traditions of Impruneta. Frost resistance The Vaso Ornato con Fauni Terracotta Impruneta, like all our outdoor vases, is resistant to low temperatures and frost, reaching -25° C. .
