This is for a beautiful highly textured Grecian styled art vase. Stunning piece. This does not hold water. It is for decor. You could add artificial flowers if desired. There is a faint inscription on the bottom that could possibly be painted over. The main color is a dark blue. Depending on the viewing angle it will show a sheen of purple and also appear black in the crevices. Measures 8.5" tall x 6.5" wide with a 3.75" opening.
