Are the pieces lightweight?

Argot pieces are made of PLA which is a type of bio-sourced plastic. Depending on their design, pieces can be delicate and light weight such as transparent pieces or more heavy. The weight of each piece is indicated on the product page. 

Are the vases watertight?

We indicate each piece that is watertight. We offer several watertight pieces such as the Double Vessel or the Soeurs Vase and test all of them before shipping to ensure they are watertight. Due to the printing process, other pieces are not guaranteed to be watertight and we recommend to be used with dry flowers only. 

In what material are the pieces made?

Argot pieces are produced using 100% plant origin raw materials. This raw material is made from PLA (polylactic acid). PLA is a type of plastic made from organic, renewable resources including corn starch. Unlike other plastics, which are made from fossil fuels, PLA is created from 100% biomass resources.

All the non-transparent pieces are made from material produced in the Netherlands and are made from recycled food packaging. Each piece is 100% recyclable and industrially compostable.

Are the pieces durable and long-lasting?

Each object is designed to transcend seasonality and made to last. PLA is a durable material however, our transparent pieces are printed extra finely to obtain optimal transparency and therefore are delicate and should be handled with care.

How should I care for my pieces?

Each piece must be hand-washed with cold water. They may be dusted and cleaned with everyday household cleaning products. 

For our bowls and fruit stand, please wash food before consumption.

For the lamps, use 220W LED only. For the USA: 110V. Please note: Cable and Soft Warm White Bulb is included.
