Retro Lusterware Ceramic Tulip Bud Vase Iridescent Cottagecore

Add a whimsical splash of 1970s character to your daily routine with this adorable vintage lusterware ceramic bud vase. Sculpted in the shape of an elegant, elongated tulip petal, the trumpet body stands on a beautifully detailed base featuring a dimensional pink wild rose blossom nestled in dark green foliage. While originally designed as a floral bud vase, this unique piece has lived most of its life serving as a very hip, aesthetic single toothbrush holder on a bathroom vanity, proving that utilitarian items can still be beautifully decorative. The exterior features a gorgeous mother-of-pearl luster glaze that captures light beautifully, casting a soft, oily rainbow iridescence that shifts from subtle golds to pastel violets as you move around it. The underside is fully hollowed and finished in a rich, mottled green-and-brown majolica-style glaze typical of mid-century novelty imports. It is a fantastic accent piece for any cottagecore, grandmacore, or kitsch bathroom setup, and functions beautifully for holding fresh spring stems, a single toothbrush, or a set of cosmetic makeup brushes. Condition Details • Ceramic Body: Structurally excellent and stable with no cracks, repairs, or structural defects. • Tulip Rim & Base: The delicate scalloped upper rim and the sculpted dimensional base flower are fully intact with no chips or rough flea bites. • Interior Well: The smooth upper throat of the vase is exceptionally clean, showing some dark mineral water scaling and sediment at the very bottom of the narrow internal well from past functional use as a toothbrush holder, which is completely hidden from view when displayed upright.
