Stylish Spiral Vase with Wavy Texture (vase mode)

This modern vase design features a sleek shape with an elegant wavy relief. The flowing waves give the vase a distinctive appearance in your space. Place the vase as a statement piece on a windowsill or table to add a stylish, modern touch to your room. Thanks to its unique texture and streamlined profile, this vase is an artistic object that draws attention even without (dried) flowers.

Recommended nozzle diameter and print settings 
For sturdy vase mode prints, a larger nozzle (0.8mm+) and thicker extrusion lines (1.0mm+) are recommended. This combination creates a strong, single-walled structure that compensates for the lack of multiple walls and infill.

Nozzle diameter: 0.8mm, 1mm, or larger 
Bottom layers: 8 
Perimeter speed range: 15 - 30 mm/s
Layer height range: 0.1 mm - 0.6 mm  
Extrusion width / wall thickness range: 1mm, 1.2mm or 1.4mm+ 
Watertight?: is possible, but experimental: print hotter than usual (+10 degrees), use a low layer height and lower print speed for improved layer adhesion.
