Hexagon Vase with Reindeer Moss – Handcrafted Decor

Geometric Mineral Planter and Preserved Reindeer Moss

The Hexagon Vase with Reindeer Moss combines a faceted geometric container with stabilized natural lichen. Crafted from dense casting compound with a smooth mineral finish, each piece functions as a stable tabletop display for desks, shelving units, and counters. The low-profile silhouette measures 7 × 7 cm (2.8 × 2.8 in), allowing it to fit into tight footprints without obstructing sightlines across work surfaces or conference tables.

Every vessel is cast individually to yield clean facet lines and structural density. Natural lichen clusters fill the interior opening, creating an organic mound that contrasts with the angular cast perimeter. The compact mass prevents tipping during routine room maintenance, offering a weighted physical anchor suitable for domestic and commercial environments.

Stabilized Lichen Characteristics and Color Varieties

The botanical component utilizes preserved Reindeer Moss (Iceland Moss) treated through a non-toxic mineral replacement process. This stabilization process substitutes water content with vegetable glycerin and natural salts, arresting organic decay completely. As a result, the lichen remains permanently soft and pliable without shedding, misting, or sunlight exposure.

A selection of eight distinct lichen color options permits direct coordination with surrounding interior materials. Neutral options like natural white and muted green tones integrate seamlessly alongside pale timbers, stone, and raw concrete. Saturated options such as blue, pink, red, and spring green create focused color accents against dark charcoal or stark white shelving.

Long-Term Maintenance and Care Instructions

Preserved plant decor requires specific ambient conditions to preserve texture and chromatic saturation over several years. The lichen must never be watered, sprayed, or placed in contact with liquid cleaners. Moisture activates fungal decay or dissolves the preservation medium, causing deterioration of the foliage structure.

Position the planter away from direct sunlight and heat registers. Ultraviolet radiation causes pigmentation shift, while intense radiant heat dries out the salt-glycerin balance, rendering the lichen brittle. Maintain interior relative humidity between 40% and 70%. If low ambient humidity causes temporary stiffening, natural softness returns once room humidity normalizes.

• Watering requirement: None; zero irrigation or foliar feeding needed.
• Dust removal: Clean gently using a low-velocity cold-air blower or a soft feather duster.
• Vase surface cleaning: Wipe the mineral body with a dry or lightly dampened microfiber cloth without touching the preserved moss crown.
• Lighting requirements: Thrives in low-light, windowless areas, and under standard artificial office lighting.
