Fill the vase with vinegar and add salt.  See vinegar is an organic
acid and the addition of the salt does (much mystic hand waving here)
nifty chemical things to make the acid stronger.  I used to know, but
I had Organic Chemistry in 1974 (?).  It works, I use it all the
time.  Handed down in the family, even.
