Vases for Diane Roses

A Diane rose measures just over fifty centimeters, and not every vase shape can hold it. This selection brings together pieces whose opening, curve and height give these stems just the right support, on their own or in pairs.

The right height for these stems

With a fifty-three-centimeter stem, a vase that's too short lets the flower tip forward, while one that's too tall swallows it. The right ratio is around one third of the total height, meaning pieces of roughly twenty to thirty centimeters. The tallest sizes in the selection, for their part, take several stems at once.

The opening provides the support

A narrow neck, like that of a bulb vase or an elongated model, holds the stem upright and is enough for a single rose. A flared opening, on the other hand, calls for three stems or more, which wedge against one another. In between, an oval vase spreads the stems in a fan, on a single plane.

Single, in pairs, in threes

A rose in a small vase can go anywhere, on a nightstand or a windowsill. Two vases of different heights side by side work better than two identical pieces: the offset creates movement. For a trio, keep the same material and vary only the heights.

Frequently asked questions

Why does the same vase come in two sizes?

The design is identical, only the scale changes. The small size suits a single stem, the large size a bouquet or a very tall stem.

Can I use flowers other than these roses?

Yes, these proportions suit any stem of a similar length, such as peonies or ranunculus. Beyond that, compare the height of the stem to that of the vase.

How do I clean a narrow-necked vase?

Fill it with warm water and a spoonful of baking soda, let it work, then use a soft bottle brush. Rinse, then dry upside down on a folded dish towel.
