Vases and Pots Sale

A vase is chosen for its neck as much as for its silhouette, because the neck is what holds the stems. Our selection brings together blown glass, textured ceramic and metal, in tall vases, round shapes and cachepots that dress up a nursery pot.

The neck determines the bouquet

A narrow neck holds a few stems upright and highlights a single flower. A wide neck lets the bouquet open up, and so needs more material so as not to look empty. A bulb shape, narrowing toward the top, holds a round bouquet without any accessory. Look at the opening before the height.

Vase or cachepot

A vase holds stems, a cachepot holds a plant in its nursery pot, which it conceals entirely. For a cachepot, aim for an opening slightly wider than the plastic pot, by two or three centimeters, so you can slip it in without forcing. The same shape sometimes comes in two sizes, and the product name indicates it.

Glass, ceramic and metal

Blown glass plays with light and shows the stems, which calls for clear water and a spotless interior. Textured ceramic hides the contents and adds dimension, while metal gives a sharper line and a bold color. Rinse glass vases in lukewarm water and dry them immediately to avoid water spots.

Frequently asked questions

What vase height for a large bouquet?

Choose a vase about two thirds the height of the stems. A thirty-centimeter vase can then hold sixty-centimeter flowers without them tipping over.

How do I remove limescale marks from a glass vase?

Fill it with lukewarm water mixed with white vinegar, let it sit, then rinse with clean water. A soft bottle brush reaches the bottom of narrow shapes.

Can a cachepot be used as a vase?

Best avoided, as a cachepot isn't always watertight. Slip a glass or an inner pot inside if you want to add water.
