Description
This ceramic stem vase carries a few kind words and a little spray of flowers, a small way to tell someone how much they matter. Across the front, YOU and SPECIAL sit in soft pink capitals with are so very written between them in a fine dark script, so the full message reads you are so very special. Below the words is a posy of three flowers on slender green stems: a pink daisy at the centre, an orange tulip to one side and a lilac bloom to the other. A border of tiny flowers in blue, pink, orange and green runs along the base. The vase is white, shaped like a slim bottle with rounded shoulders and a narrow neck that opens into a gently flared lip, and it stands 14.5cm tall and 5cm across.
At this height it is sized for a single stem or two: a sprig of lavender, a garden rose or a few sweet peas picked in the morning. The narrow neck holds stems upright without much arranging, so it suits a bedside table, a kitchen windowsill, a desk or the end of a bookshelf where a larger vase would crowd the space. We think it makes a thoughtful Mother's Day gift, and an easy thank you for someone who has gone out of their way, since the words on the front say what a card would and stay on show long after.
The vase is ceramic, with a smooth, softly glossy finish that shows off the colours of the lettering and flowers. Care is simple: empty and rinse it between bunches, wipe the outside with a soft damp cloth and dry it before it goes back on the shelf. For gifting, tuck a few flowers from the garden into the neck before you hand it over, and the message on the front does the rest.
