vintage hand-turned olive wood vase.
About this piece
This is a hand-turned wooden vase crafted from olive wood, displaying the natural grain and warm honey-amber tones characteristic of the material. The elegant baluster form features a flared trumpet neck, a generous bulbous body, and a splayed pedestal base — a timeless silhouette that speaks to mid-century craftsmanship. Subtle inlaid rings of contrasting darker wood encircle the waist and base, adding quiet detail to the turning.
The finish is smooth and well-maintained, with a soft sheen revealing the wood’s figuring throughout. Olive wood, prized for its durability and colour variation, is a traditional choice for decorative turned wares, particularly in Mediterranean regions. This vase would suit both display purposes and holding fresh or dried stems. Condition is excellent; minor surface marks consistent with age and gentle use are visible but do not detract from its appeal. To care for it, simply dust regularly and avoid prolonged exposure to direct heat or damp.
