Small Wavy Ribbed Glass Vase - Clear

This small ribbed glass vase follows a soft wave, so from above its outline curves like a gentle S rather than a plain circle or square. Fine vertical ribs run from base to rim all the way round, and in clear glass they catch the light and give the surface a quiet texture. It stands 15cm tall, 16cm wide and 10cm deep, a compact size that sits happily where a taller vase would crowd the space. The clear finish keeps it light to look at and lets the colour of your flowers do the talking.

At this height it suits a short bunch of fresh stems, a few garden cuttings or a single bloom with its leaves, and the wavy outline gives even a sparse arrangement some movement. We like it on a mantelpiece, a windowsill, a bookshelf or a bedside table, and at 10cm deep it fits narrower ledges where a wider vase might not. Because the glass is clear it sits comfortably with most colour schemes, from warm wood and painted walls to cool grey and white. It also makes a thoughtful housewarming gift for someone who has just moved home, especially with a handful of flowers tucked inside on the day you visit.

It is made from clear glass and ribbed all the way round, with a flat base that sits level on a shelf or table. To keep it bright, rinse it out each time you change the water, wipe the outside with a damp cloth and dry it with a soft cloth so the ribs stay free of watermarks. A narrow bottle brush reaches into the curves at each end of the wave. For the neatest look, trim stems so the blooms sit just above the rim and the ribs stay on show, or set it near a window where daylight runs through the glass all day.
