Kenyan artisans hand carve this sleek storage cup from creamy white soapstone. Since soapstone can contain small veins of color from various minerals, each vessel is completely one-of-a-kind. It’s recommended to add a liner if using as a vase for fresh flowers. Because these are handmade items crafted from a varying natural material, each is unique.

Dimensions: 3.25"L x 3.25"W x 4.75"H

Crafted from: Soapstone
