Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Facebook Marketplace, OfferUp, or local antique/consignment shops due to the high cost and risk of shipping heavy, fragile oversized glassware and ceramics.
Selling Tips
Highlight the dramatic scale for interior decorating. Take photos in natural light showing the vase styled with faux florals or as a standalone statement piece. Local pickup only is strongly recommended to avoid catastrophic shipping damage.
