Umbrella Stand / Vase by Match Pewter
The rich tones of match Pewter beautifully reflect the colors of nature. Their garden collection includes containers sized to showcase a variety of blooms, whether a dramatic centerpiece or a single stem in a humble bud vase. Many pieces, like their elegant umbrella stand, pitchers and tumblers, serve dual purposes, adding an element of versatility to their distinct allure. Consider using their umbrella stand as a centerpiece with a substantial floral arrangement, or one of their elegant pitchers to hold freshly cut hydrangeas from the garden.

Match was founded by RISD graduate David Reiss in 1995. He collaborates closely with Italian artisans to produce designs in classic European forms from the 14th through 19th centuries; many are cast from molds made from original antiques.
Pewter has an odd warmth in appearance that allows it to seamlessly meld with traditional and modern table settings alike. Each piece is made with a lead free alloy of tin, copper and antimony that is FDA approved and food safe.
Do not soak. Hand washing suggested.Wipe insert with damp cloth.
To clean your pewter hand wash in warm water with a liquid dish soap. Be sure to dry the pewter completely, as water allowed to dry on pewter may cause spots. Any spots that appear can be easily removed by polishing or by gently rubbing the area in small circular motions with very fine "0000" steel wool.
