Confirm the intended use
Read whether the listing describes a decorative object, a vessel for dry arrangements or a vase suitable for fresh flowers. Those descriptions are not interchangeable. If water suitability is missing, ask before filling it. This guide does not certify any Caryina product as watertight.
Protect the surface underneath
Place the vase on a stable, level surface away from edges and routes where it could be knocked. Check the base before putting it on delicate furniture. Use an appropriate protective barrier if recommended for the vase and surface, and check underneath regularly when water use is permitted.
Use only a confirmed cleaning method
Follow the supplied instructions for the exact material and finish. Do not assume a vase is dishwasher-safe, suitable for soaking or resistant to household cleaning chemicals. Narrow openings can make cleaning difficult, so consider access before choosing an arrangement. Ask support if the product information leaves the cleaning method unclear.
Inspect between arrangements
Look for chips, cracks, loose parts or changes to the finish before reuse. Stop using a damaged vessel for water and ask for advice rather than attempting to seal it with an unapproved product. Lift and move the vase carefully; avoid sliding it across furniture.
Keep expectations product-specific
Indoor use does not establish frost resistance or outdoor suitability. A material name does not establish food safety or heat resistance. Use the vase only for its stated purpose and retain the product information so you can check it when the arrangement changes.
