Ornate Vase by Mia Kay M3DM

Somewhere in the merchant's back room, half-buried beneath a dusty cloth, sits a vase that has no business being here — its carvings too old, its glaze too deliberiar, its presence too deliberate to be coincidence.

• ✔ Resin terrain piece, printed fresh to order in the UK
• ✔ Supplied unpainted — primes and paints easily
• ✔ Compatible with standard 28mm–32mm miniature scales
• ✔ Works on the gaming table and as part of a display diorama

This ornate two-handled amphora from Mia Kay M3DM is exactly the kind of scatter piece that rewards attentive players and enriches every scene it inhabits. The sculpt features multiple bands of intricate surface decoration — diamond lattice patterns, interlocking Celtic knotwork, and scrolling wave borders — wrapped around a classically proportioned vessel with twin curved handles. It sits on a detailed cobblestone base, grounding it naturally in dungeon corridors, market stalls, wizard towers, or ancient ruins.

Whether you're dressing a merchant's stall, filling a temple antechamber, or marking the spot where something important is hidden, this vase brings a level of environmental detail that flat tiles simply cannot replicate. Paint it as terracotta, aged bronze, cracked porcelain, or enchanted alabaster — the sculpt holds paint beautifully and rewards careful highlighting across its layered relief work.

Well-suited to adventurers who:

• Build immersive battle maps with environmental storytelling
• Want scatter terrain that doubles as a display or diorama piece
• Are looking for a prop to anchor a mystery or MacGuffin in their campaign
• Enjoy painting detailed surface textures and relief carvings

Encounter Hook:
The party has been hired to recover a specific vase from a noble's ransacked estate — but when they arrive, they find three identical vessels, each one sealed with wax bearing a different faction's mark. Only one contains the stolen deed. The others, the fence warned them, are trapped.

Scaled to 32mm. The model with the detailed base comes as a single attached piece. An alternative plain base variant is available separately and attaches easily with a small amount of glue. Supplied unpainted and ready for priming — minor imperfections inherent to the production process are possible; these are easily addressed before painting.
