Sure, you look stunning carrying buds from your beaux around town on Valentine’s Day. But what about after date night, when you return home to your collection of too-casual mason jars and too-fancy wine glasses but not a proper vase in sight? See—you really do need to invest in a vase! Actually make that two: a wider, multi-stem vase for full bouquets and a short bud vase for your favorite clippings. We’ve got both types covered in the roundup, where we showcase 15 vases that rival the beauty of the flowers they so artfully hold.
1. ferm Living Spear Vase ($79): A geo pattern in pretty pastels? We’ve already found ourselves a winner! This porcelain vase would look at home in any modern living space.
2. Brass Hexagon Vase ($63): Don’t worry about top heavy flowers tipping over in this solid brass vase. The hexagon shape is right on trend.
3. Pinched and Glazed Bottle Vase ($72): This ceramic color block vase is handmade, and we love that you can totally tell. Every detail is completely charming, from the paint’s drip finish to the intentional indent in its silhouette.
4. Pebble Bud VaseandBloom Bud Vase ($20 each): We’re obsessed with this collection of bold and bright little vessels. Mix and match the round pebble and flute shaped bloom vases to make an unforgettable tablescape.
5. Blue Marble Vase ($68): Marbled blue forms flow like swirling clouds across this slender handmade vase that we’re just dying to stuff with bright red roses or cheery daffodils.
6. Dipped Bouey Vase ($145): This glossy color block vessel measures almost 12 inches tall—that’s skyscraper height as far as vases go. Filled with stretching branches, it would make a striking table centerpiece.
7. Pooley 8-Tube Vase ($30): Give each flower the attention it deserves with this unconventional eight tube vase. We’re smitten with the mix of neutrals and muted gem tones in this modern eggplant color scheme.
