So, first off, these are pretty nifty, but unfortunately, for shipping reasons, they made the 2 larger vases so that the top portions can be removed so that the smaller vases could be nested inside of them. You can see the seam where the vases come a part and now, looking at the picture, you can also see it in the picture - it's the top most, thicker, line of rust on the largest 2 vases, but in person, it is obviously a seam where they split.  In short, I'd rather pay more for shipping of them packaged individually and as whole pieces and not have them be nestable since shipping is the only time that feature would be used.  Or make the seam one of the bottom 'lines of rust", so it would be less conspicuous. They are on the lighter side, so I'm going to put some sand in the bottoms to weigh them down  Overall, though, I'd still buy and recommend them.

Pros: Great value, unique pieces
Cons: The larger 2  vases have visible seams where they come a part.
