Field notes

The portfolio distinguishes a monolith vessel, a narrow-throated dried-flower piece, and a water-holding vase with a removable liner. Its guides address plant and indoor safety, shell-and-liner care, and surface finishing; the finishing page mentions a 30-second dry test. The site says models may be its own or supplied by a customer, with production and export handled through partner lines.
