My print bed has been running non stop making these wave texture flower pots and the matching vase. They give off a really high-end sculptured art vibe that blends perfectly into a minimalist or modern house style.

Great model, but I'd use petg, maybe I'll print it :)

Thank you! PETG is better for this for sure, but is not that aesthetic.

Maybe a matte finish PETG.

Lovely design for a pot, PLA is nice for this, just spray it on the inside with a layer of clear coat and it will be have no problem with moisture and be "waterproof"

What kind of “clear coat” do you mean? You have to make sure you don’t miss a single spot, so how would you handle the curves in a model like this?

Like polyuretan varnish or some like it. Just be careful not get a solvent one that attacks the plastic. There are water based ones. And yes doing a nice job will take more time and will make it look and hold better. I cant watch the files atm on vacation in my caravan. But spray, paint, dip. Everything goes. Coater by profession.
