Waterford Crystal Classic Collection First Edition piece This richly decorated pedestal vase is part of Waterford's second edition Classic Crystal Collection. Waterford has been making renowned crystal pieces for more than 200 years, and the centuries of craftsmanship are clearly displayed in this series inspired by the seahorse, a creature with ancient, mythical significance. The Seahorse pattern is based on the crest adopted more than a decade ago to represent the Irish seaside location of the Waterford company. The sides of this mid-sized vase are festooned with swirling wedge cuts, punctuated with smaller olive cuts for a sense of upward motion. Between the wedges are fields of raised diamond shapes, with modified rosettes encircling the smooth rim of the bowl to symbolize the trident of Neptune, Roman god of the sea. A large 16-rayed star is cut into the pedestal base of the vase. The Seahorse 10-inch vase is a good size for dahlias, roses, chrysanthemums, and other medium-stemmed flowers. To preserve its clarity, wash the vase with mild liquid soap and warm (not hot) water; do not wash in dishwasher as this may permanently etch surface of crystal. Rinse with warm water and polish with a lint-free cloth. Certain water may leave a lime or mineral deposit on the crystal; if that happens, vinegar on a soft, nonabrasive cloth will help remove the deposit. Do not store upside down on its rim or stand on its rim on a draining board. Crystal can focus sunlight into a concentrated beam that could potentially scorch rugs or furniture, so do not store or display in direct sunlight. The vase stands 10 inches tall and has a 6-1/4-inch diameter; the base is 4-1/2 inches wide.
