The Hanging Vase by Louis C. Tiffany is a long, thin, shiny metal vase. The vase has a narrow base that widens into a trumpet-shaped body. The body then curves outward and upward into a wide, flared mouth with wavy edges. A small protrusion extends from the top. The vase stands on a small square base. The background is gray and white.
