Full details
The Mayfair Pedestal Bowl is designed for home decorators and florists seeking a sophisticated, vintage-inspired accent piece to elevate their interior styling. Its primary benefit is a versatile, hammered metallic gold finish that serves as a stunning focal point for table centerpieces or floral arrangements. A notable caveat is that the bowl is not inherently watertight, requiring the use of a floral liner or foam if you intend to use it with live plants or fresh flowers.

FAQs
Is the Mayfair Pedestal Bowl safe for food?
This item is designed for decorative purposes, such as floristry or table adornments, and is not recommended for food service.
Can I use fresh flowers in this bowl?
Yes, but you must use a floral liner or a watertight container inside the bowl to prevent leaks and protect the metal finish.
How do I clean the gold finish?
Use a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Avoid any abrasive cleaners or rough scrubbing pads.
What are the exact dimensions?
The bowl measures approximately 17 cm in height and 20 cm in width.
Is the gold finish prone to scratching?
Like most metallic decorative items, the surface can be scratched by sharp objects. Handle with care and avoid using metal tools for arrangements.
Troubleshooting
Bowl is leaking water
The bowl is not guaranteed to be watertight. Please insert a secondary plastic or glass container inside to hold water for fresh flowers.
Fingerprints or smudges on the surface
Gently buff the surface with a clean, dry microfiber cloth. Do not use water or chemical polishers.
Bowl feels unstable
Ensure the surface underneath is completely flat. If using heavy floral arrangements, ensure the weight is distributed evenly across the center of the bowl.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Mayfair Pedestal Bowl is straightforward: place it on a level, stable surface like a mantle, dining table, or sideboard. To maintain its lustrous gold appearance, wipe the bowl regularly with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can scratch or dull the metallic finish. If you are using it for arrangements, always ensure you have a liner in place to protect the interior base from moisture buildup, which can lead to oxidation or spotting on the metal surface.
