Description
Janine is a fluted glass vase in pink, mouthblown from 100% glass and standing 30cm tall and 20cm across. The rim is gathered into deep, wavy flutes like a frill, and from there the body tapers gently to a narrower foot finished with a thin transparent band of glass. The surface is smooth with a soft gloss, so light picks out every fold around the top. At 2.2KG it has a reassuring, solid weight for a vase of its height.
At 30cm tall it is a good middle height for a vase: tall enough to hold its own on a dining table or a sideboard without crowding the space around it. The wide fluted mouth suits full, round-headed blooms gathered into a loose bunch, and it is just as happy with taller garden stems that spill over the frilled edge. A sunny windowsill is another natural home, where daylight brings out the sheen of the glass. It suits anyone who likes a little colour and playfulness in a room, and it makes a cheerful housewarming or birthday present for someone who always has flowers in the house.
Mouthblown glass is formed by a glassblower's breath, so each vase comes out slightly different in the depth of its flutes and the line of its rim; small variations from one piece to the next are part of the method. The transparent foot gives the pink body a neat, lifted finish where it meets the table. The styling props shown are not included. For styling, let the frill do the work: keep the stems simple and generous, and set it beside plain wood, cream linen or other bright glass so the colour stays the focus.

Frequently Asked
How big is the Janine vase?
It stands 30cm tall and measures 20cm across, and it weighs 2.2KG, so it has a solid, steady feel.
What material is the vase?
It is made from 100% glass, mouthblown, with a smooth, glossy surface in pink and a thin transparent band at the foot.
Will each vase look exactly the same?
Not exactly. Mouthblown glass is formed by hand and breath, so the flutes and the rim vary slightly from one vase to the next.
What kind of flowers suit it best?
Its wide, fluted mouth suits full, round-headed blooms in a generous bunch, as well as taller garden stems left to spill over the frilled edge.
Are the flowers included?
No. You receive the vase alone; the flowers and the other styling props shown are not included with it.
