The vase is pretty, but the quality is moderate... When I recieved my vase, one of the butterflies was broken off of the vase. I was going to return it, but the maintenance people at my job tossed it out by mistake. Would I buy it again? Yes, but for $20 - $25, not for $40. It was pretty, it really was, but the quality could be better...

Unfortunately, I was under the impression that most of the other reviewers were having problems getting their vases shipped to them without breaking. So, when I received my vase without any breakage, I thought, "Lucky me." Especially since it is a BEAUTIFUL vase. That is, until the butterflies started popping off. I had just washed (by hand) the vase and set it down to dry. BTW, the crystal is very fragile you have to be very careful with it; and because of the odd shape of the top and the butterflies all around the side, you cannot invert the vase to air dry upside down nor in a drying rack. You have to just let it sit on your counter and dry as it is (then dump accumulated water out once it is mostly dry).

I returned the first vase and asked Amazon to send a replacement. That was fine until my husband walked passed the vase and literally, another butterfly just popped off. Luckily they did not shatter, but landed whole on the table. On a hunch, I took a hold at all the remaining butterflies and gave each one a gentle tug. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM POPPED OFF without any effort at all (except for one butterfly which managed to hang on, but it may have come off if I tried to tug it a bit harder.) I have super-glued them back on, but they come off again.

For $40 you do not expect this kind of crap. What happened to quality control?

The first time they shipped me the vase, it came with all the butterflies broken off. It was no problem getting a new and intact vase for free after I called their customer service. However, after about a week, the butterflies on the unbroken vase began falling off on their own. And no amount of super-glue will keep them on! As this vase was a gift for my mom's birthday, I was very disappointed. Do not buy this vase unless you are looking for an overpriced disposable vase!

This vase looks very nice. When the first one came, it was broken, but I reported it right away and amazon very readily sent me an unbroken one for free. Great service, great product.

Showed up with one butterfly wing broken off, but still in one piece so I figured i'd just glue it back on. 1 years later and I think it only has 1 butterfly still on it. Others fell off with just gentle washing to take dust off of it. It sits in the garden window behind the sink. So it hasn't had any rough handling. Haven't been very happy with the quality.

I just recently bought this product for a friend wedding. It really is a very pretty vase. My issue is not with the quality of the vase itself, it is with how the vendor packaged the item. The vase came in a box with paper/packaging only around the box it was in. There was not any type of padding around the vase itself within the the items original box. I know it might sound confusing, but to make a long story short, I got the item about 1 week before the wedding, and opened it to find 2 of the butterflies had broken off and the vase was loose in its box. I don't know how the vase itself did not break. I was able to super glue the broken butterflies back together and back on the vase, but I felt bad that I had to give an item that had been broken. Like I said, the item itself is beautiful, but that doesn't really do you a whole lot of good if it is broken. They need to ship it like it is a breakable item.

Godinger Crystal Butterfly Vase
came to me in perfect condition. I was afraid the butterflies would brake.
But the packing was done perfectly. The vase looks elegant. Very impress with it..........thank you Alicia

Beautiful! I am amazed it came intact being so fragile! IT was packaged well and looks great even without flowers!

My wife loves the vase. However, despite all the packaging around the boxes within boxes one of the butterflies had broken off. I was going to return it but I was worried that I would not be able to pack it safely and the return procedure just seemed like an unnecessary headache. So I've decided just to keep it and glue it back on.
