Vintage Princess Zinc Crown Glass Canister*

The Vintage Princess Zinc Crown Glass Canister stands 14" high on a 5" diameter, tall enough to be the thing people look at rather than the thing beside it. Its vintage, rustic character comes from the pairing: glass with the weight and stillness of an old apothecary jar, and the zinc crown that gives the piece its name. Set one on a table and it reads as something found rather than something bought.
What makes it worth personalizing is how many jobs it does in a single evening. It is great for candles, and a candle set down inside 14 inches of glass carries the room after sunset without the flame ever catching a breeze. It is great for flowers, and the 5" diameter takes a loose, generous, garden-gathered arrangement instead of a tight florist's bunch. Or make it a wishing pot for the bride and groom: guests write a wish as they arrive and leave it inside, and by the end of the night the canister holds the evening itself, waiting to be read on a first anniversary.
Your wording is personalized in-house by HansonEllis, up to 12 characters on each of four lines. Two first names and a date fit. So does a new married surname with the year underneath, or a short line the two of you have been saying to each other since long before the engagement. That lettering is what turns a beautiful glass canister into the one that belongs to this couple and this date, and it is the reason the canister goes home with someone afterwards instead of back into a storage box.
Rustic weddings, vintage receptions, engagement parties, bridal showers, anniversary dinners and an ordinary mantel at home all take the same 14" canister. Add your personalization text above, choose your quantity, and give the table some height and a story.

Which one should I choose
The question with a centerpiece is whether it survives the event or gets carried out with the linens.
| Vintage Princess Zinc Crown Glass Canister | Choose it when you want height on the table, a piece that holds a candle or flowers, and personalized wording that keeps it after the wedding. |
|---|---|
| A plain glass vase | Choose it when the flowers are meant to be the only thing anyone notices and nothing needs to be kept afterwards. |
| A rented centerpiece | Choose it when the table has to look full for one night only and everything goes back the next morning. |
For a rustic or vintage reception, the personalized canister wins because it is a centerpiece, a wishing pot and a keepsake in one 14" piece.
