Finding a decorative vase that balances visual impact with versatile styling can be challenging for both residential and commercial interiors. The Chelsea House Ward Aluminum Made Urn, available at LOOMLAN with free shipping, delivers a polished brass finish in a compact 7.75-inch cube format that works equally well as a standalone decorative jar or as a functional ceramic vase alternative for fresh and dried arrangements.

What is a decorative vase?
A decorative vase is a freestanding vessel designed to hold fresh or dried botanicals or to function as a standalone accent piece within an interior composition. Unlike purely functional flower containers, decorative vases are selected for their material, finish, and sculptural presence, contributing to a room's aesthetic whether empty or filled.
What You Get With the Chelsea House Ward Aluminum Made Urn
- Two-Toned Design -- The textured gold exterior contrasts with a smooth black interior, creating visual depth and allowing the piece to complement both warm and neutral color palettes.
- Polished Brass Finish -- The hand-finished brass surface reflects ambient light, adding warmth to tabletops, shelves, and mantels without requiring additional lighting.
- Compact Cube Proportions -- The 7.75-inch cube footprint fits standard console tables, nightstands, and credenzas while maintaining enough volume for small dried flower bundles or pampas grass stems.
- Lightweight Aluminum Construction -- At 1.2 lbs, the urn is easy to reposition during seasonal styling or room reconfigurations, and the aluminum core resists tarnishing better than solid brass alternatives.
- Round Urn Silhouette -- The classic urn shape transitions across modern, traditional, and transitional design schemes, making it adaptable for client projects and evolving residential interiors.
How do you style decorative vases on a mantel?
Layer the Ward Urn with complementary decorative objects in varying heights to create visual rhythm across a mantel -- pair it with taller candlesticks or sculptures to anchor one end, then balance with smaller vases and jars on the opposite side. The polished brass finish reflects firelight and pairs well with both organic textures and refined home accents for year-round styling flexibility.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What type of vase works best for dried flowers?
- Vases with narrow openings or urn shapes like the Ward support dried stems upright without requiring floral foam, while the 7.75-inch height accommodates bundles of lavender, wheat, or small pampas clusters.
- What goes in a large floor vase besides flowers?
- While the Ward is a table-scale piece, similar decorative vases can display curly willow branches, decorative filler like moss balls, or simply remain empty as sculptural focal points in entryways and corners.
- How do you style decorative vases on a mantel?
- Group vases in odd numbers with staggered heights, anchoring larger pieces at either end and clustering smaller accents like the Ward in the center or asymmetrically to one side for balanced composition.
- Does the Ward Urn ship free?
- Yes, LOOMLAN offers free shipping on all orders to the continental United States with no minimum purchase requirement.
- What is the difference between a vase and a ginger jar?
- Vases feature open tops for displaying botanicals, while ginger jars are lidded vessels traditionally used for storage -- both function as decorative accents when not holding flowers or contents.
- How should I clean the polished brass finish?
- Wipe the aluminum urn with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust; for deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap, then dry immediately to preserve the polished brass finish.
