Judith Ribbed Glass Vase 24.5cm - Green

Judith is a ribbed glass vase in green, 24.5cm tall and 20.5cm across at its widest. Deep vertical ribs run from the base up to the shoulder, so the glass catches the light along every fold and the green reads paler on the ridges and deeper in the grooves. The body swells wide and low, then narrows to a short neck finished with a thick, rounded rim in a contrasting shade. It is made entirely of glass and weighs 1KG, so it has a pleasing heft on a table or shelf.

Its short neck suits a few stems rather than a full bouquet: a single branch of blossom, two or three garden flowers, or a sprig of dried grasses left to arch out over the rim. At 24.5cm tall it sits comfortably on a side table, a windowsill, a mantelpiece or the middle of a dining table without blocking the view across it. The green works well in a living room with deep upholstery or a bedroom with pale walls, and it makes a thoughtful housewarming or birthday present for someone who likes cut flowers around the home.

The finish is spray coloured, so the surface deserves a gentle hand. The maker says not to clean it in the dishwasher and to avoid aggressive detergents and abrasive agents, which means hand washing with a soft cloth and a mild washing up liquid, then drying it with a clean towel. Glass does not absorb water, so a quick rinse between bunches keeps the inside fresh. For styling, group it with smaller vases of different heights on a tray or sideboard, or let it stand alone on a plain surface where the ribbed profile and rounded rim can be seen from the side.

Can the vase go in the dishwasher?
