Vases and planters

Glass and ceramic lead this collection of containers, ahead of iron, stoneware and fiber cement. A vase holds a bouquet, a planter dresses a potted plant, and both also stand beautifully on their own on a console table.

Height dictates the bouquet

Most pieces measure between 20 and 40 cm: the height that holds a cut stem without letting it tip over. Below 20 cm, turn to short flowers or a compact arrangement that fits a small format. Between 40 and 70 cm, the vase becomes the centerpiece of the table and needs nothing beside it.

What the material changes

Glass reveals the stem and the water level, which suits airy bouquets: the Bulbe Clear Vase and the Dots Blown Glass Vase both play on this transparency. Ceramic and stoneware hide the stems and are better suited to dense arrangements. Iron and fiber cement, for their part, give a rawer look.

Planter or vase

A planter acts as a sleeve: it dresses the plant's original pot, which you take out for watering. A vase holds the stems and their water directly. Vases make up most of the collection, with planters playing a supporting role, like the Marble Effect Planter and the Terra Planter.

Frequently asked questions

What vase height for 60 cm stems?

Choose a vase about a third of the stem's height, so around twenty centimeters at least. You can also trim the stems to tighten the bouquet.

Can you put water in a planter?

The water stays in the original pot, the one that slips inside the planter. For cut flowers, choose a vase.

How do I clean a glass vase?

Warm water and a long-handled brush will remove the residue that stems leave on the sides. Stoneware and ceramic only need a damp cloth.
