Vases: Only 10 Left in Stock

A tall vase is chosen first by its height: it determines how much space the vase will take up and the length of stems it can hold. Here you'll find tall pieces, in blown glass or with a silver finish, to place on the floor, a console table or a sideboard.

Vase height, stem length

A simple rule avoids disappointing arrangements: stems should rise to about one and a half times the height of the vase. For the 38 cm Massa, allow stems of around sixty centimeters. For the Silver Très, standing 51 cm tall, you would need to go beyond seventy-five centimeters, a length few branches reach.

The neck dictates the arrangement

A narrow neck holds a few stems upright and forgives a lack of foliage. A wide opening calls for volume, otherwise the flowers slide to the edges and fan out. So look at the neck as much as the silhouette before deciding what to put in it.

Blown glass or silver finish

The blown glass of the Alba vase lets everything show, the water as well as the lower part of the stems: keep this area clean, it's part of the display. The silver finish reflects the light in the room and shows fingerprints; a soft, dry cloth used from time to time restores its shine.

Frequently asked questions

Where should I place a 51 cm vase?

On the floor against a wall, next to a sofa, or on a sideboard deep enough to hold it fully. Avoid the center of a dining table, where such a height blocks the line of sight between guests.

Can a vase be left empty?

Yes, and tall pieces often benefit from it. A 51 cm silhouette reads like a sculpture, whereas a short vase needs a bouquet to come alive.

How do I clean the inside of a tall vase?

Warm soapy water and a long-handled bottle brush will remove deposits. Rinse, then leave to dry upside down to avoid a ring at the bottom.
