A Rather Splendid Vessel With Rather Grand Ambitions
We'll be honest, we're rather taken with this one. The Ladder Vase is a beautifully crafted porcelain piece that speaks to something quietly marvellous about everyday life. Standing at 180mm tall with a 70mm by 60mm base, it's the sort of object that makes you pause and think, which is precisely the point.
Why Choose Our Ladder Vase
Poetic Purpose: Inspired by the simple geometry of storage tanks and their skyward-reaching ladders, this vessel transforms utility into quiet monument. It's a reminder that ordinary forms can carry dreams of ascent.
Handcrafted Porcelain: Each piece is fabulously made from quality porcelain, designed to last and to mean something.
Genuine Symbolism: More than decoration, it represents direction, hope, and the beauty of rising step by step. The sort of thing that actually says something about who you are.
Product Details
Dimensions: 70mm width, 60mm depth, 180mm height

This is the kind of piece that collectors and lovers of proper design tend to gravitate towards. The sort that looks rather good on a shelf, on a desk, or anywhere it catches the light at just the right angle. Rather good indeed.
SHIPPING + RETURNS
THE RATHER IMPORTANT BITS
This rather lovely piece ships directly from our brand partner - we work with independent brands who are absolutely brilliant and work frightfully hard to create beautiful things.
SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.
Some are brilliant at international shipping, others prefer to keep things closer to home.
At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.
We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!
RETURNS
You have 14 days to return items.
Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!
🌍 PLEASE CHOOSE THOUGHTFULLY:
Our wonderful partners put their hearts into everything they make.
Ordering multiple sizes to try at home is rather hard on our planet and makes things jolly difficult for these brilliant independent creators.
When in doubt, do ask us first!

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect.
Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience. Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — step inside, explore our world, and see what catches your imagination.
Giving Back
We’re proud to support Sutton Night Watch, a grassroots UK charity making a real difference in the lives of those facing homelessness. Through regular donations of stock, supplies, and essentials, we back their mission to offer warmth, dignity, and practical help to anyone in need — right where it matters most.
