Handcrafted Black Marble Flower Vase with Semi-Precious Stone Inlay | Luxury Pietra Dura Floral Art from Agra
Elevate your interior décor with this handcrafted black marble flower vase, an exceptional example of Agra’s heritage Pietra Dura (semi-precious stone inlay) craftsmanship. Carefully carved from high-grade natural black marble, this vase features a classic baluster form with a flared rim and sturdy pedestal base, offering both elegance and stability.
The surface is richly decorated with intricate floral and vine patterns, meticulously hand-inlaid by skilled artisans using naturally sourced semi-precious stones. The contrast between the deep black marble base and the luminous inlay work creates a striking visual appeal, making this vase a true statement piece.
