With a height and diameter both measuring 46 cm, this perfectly balanced piece features the characteristic swelling body, tapered neck and gently flared rim that define the amphora silhouette \u2014 a shape refined over centuries and still unmistakably at home in contemporary gardens, terraces and villa settings.<\/p>\n<p>Weighing 33 kg (approx. 72.8 lbs), the vase has a <strong>substantial, grounded presence<\/strong> that holds its own as a standalone decorative element or as an elegant planter for seasonal flowers, ornamental grasses or trailing plants. Its generous proportions make it equally suited to symmetrical arrangements flanking an entrance, to a solitary focal point on a stone terrace, or to a curated composition alongside other classical garden ornaments.<\/p>\n<h3>Material<\/h3>\n<p>Art. 156 is crafted from <strong>agglomerato cementizio<\/strong> composed of Carrara marble granulate and white cement RCK 52.5 \u2014 the certified Italpark compound that guarantees exceptional density, surface refinement and long-term resistance to weathering. The natural mineral aggregate gives the surface a <strong>warm, stone-like texture<\/strong> that weathers gracefully through the seasons, developing the subtle patina characteristic of authentic artisan stonework.<\/p>\n<h3>Placement &amp; Decorative Use<\/h3>\n<p>Designed for year-round outdoor display, this amphora vase is an ideal furnishing element for gardens, terraces, courtyards and villa grounds. It can be used as a <strong>purely decorative sculpture<\/strong> \u2014 displayed empty to highlight its classical form \u2014 or planted up as a fioriera with your choice of seasonal or perennial planting. Its neutral, natural-toned finish integrates seamlessly with both traditional stone architecture and modern minimalist landscaping.<\/p>\n<h3>Maintenance &amp; Care<\/h3>\n<p>To preserve the vase in optimal condition, always ensure the <strong>drainage hole remains clear<\/strong>: place a 4\u20135 cm layer of gravel or coarse stones at the base of the planting cavity before adding soil, so water can drain freely at all times. Raise the vase <strong>3\u20134 cm off the ground<\/strong> using feet or spacers to prevent the external drainage hole from becoming blocked by the surface beneath.<\/p>\n<p>This precaution is especially important in winter: if water accumulates inside and freezes, the resulting expansion can cause cracking or structural damage. <strong>Ensuring free drainage<\/strong> is the single most effective measure to protect your vase through frost periods.<\/p>\n<h3>Handcrafted Made in Italy Since 1968<\/h3>\n<p>Art. 156 is produced entirely in Italy at the Italpark Srl workshop in <strong>Borgo San Giacomo, Brescia<\/strong>. Every piece is hand-finished by skilled artisans following the same production standards established in 1968 \u2014 over half a century of uninterrupted Italian craftsmanship dedicated to decorative garden stonework. Dimensions and weight are indicative, as is natural with hand-finished artisan production.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Classic amphora-shaped garden vase in Carrara marble granulate and white cement.
