Description
This ceramic vase takes the shape of a wrapped bouquet. A folded edge runs up one side to the rim, and a ribbon is tied around the middle in a full bow, its two tails falling towards the base. It comes in a soft pale pink with a smooth matt surface, so the bow and the folds of the wrap catch the light gently rather than shining. It stands 24cm tall, 12.5cm wide and 12cm deep. The body narrows at the ribbon before flaring out again at the top, much as a real bunch does in the hand. The rim is gently uneven and follows the line of the wrap, which keeps the whole piece looking relaxed and unfussy.
At 24cm tall it sits comfortably on a dressing table, a bedside table, a windowsill or a mantelpiece. It makes a natural home for a modest bunch from the garden or the florist. The pale pink suits a bedroom just as well as a living room or hallway with plenty of white, cream and natural wood around it. Because it already looks like a bouquet, it reads as a pretty piece even on the days it stands empty on a shelf. It also makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves flowers in the house, with or without a bunch to go in it.
The vase is ceramic. The bow, the ribbon band and the folded wrap are all formed in the same piece and the same pale pink, so it reads as one smooth shape from every side. To keep it fresh, wipe it inside and out with a soft damp cloth, then dry it with a soft dry cloth to keep the even matt look. We like it standing alone on a narrow shelf where the bow can be seen, and it is just as happy holding a single stem as a full bunch.
