Question 1

How does this 3D printed vase differ from classic ceramic or glass vases?

Accepted Answer

The 3D printed Apex Vase stands out with its unique geometric design and lightness, features often not possible or very expensive with classic materials. Its surface texture is characteristic of additive manufacturing. Although not intended for water, it offers modern aesthetics and is more resistant to breakage than glass variants.

Question 2

Is the Apex Vase suitable for use with fresh flowers and water?

Accepted Answer

The Apex Vase is primarily designed as a decorative element for dried plants, artificial flowers, or as a standalone piece. PLA material is not waterproof or water-permeable, so we do not recommend using it with fresh flowers requiring water. For such purposes, a separate waterproof container would need to be inserted inside.

Question 3

Can the Apex Vase be placed outdoors or in direct sunlight?

Accepted Answer

The Apex Vase is primarily intended for indoor use. The PLA material, from which it is mostly made, is not resistant to long-term direct sunlight or high temperatures, which could cause deformation or color fading. For outdoor placement, we recommend variants made from more durable PETG filament.

Question 4

What are the color options for the Apex Vase at Niro3D?

Accepted Answer

Niro3D offers the Apex Vase in a wide range of colors, including classic shades like white, black, grey, but also in more vibrant colors such as orange or turquoise. In addition to standard PLA and PETG filaments, special variants like PLA Matte, PLA Silk, or PLA Galaxy are also available, which give the vase a unique visual effect.
