Description
This is a vase in solid blue glass, 26cm tall and 17.5cm across, and its outline is what sets it apart. A wide, flaring bowl at the top narrows to a pinched waist, swells again into a smaller rounded bulb, then steps down onto a short ribbed foot. Fine vertical ribs run the full height, so light catches along every fold and the blue deepens where the glass curves inward. It is made entirely of glass and weighs 1.66KG, which gives it real heft for its size.
At 26cm it is a medium height, tall enough for a loose bouquet of fresh or dried garden flowers or a single large bloom, and the wide mouth lets stems fan out rather than stand stiffly upright. It suits a console table in a hallway, a sideboard or cabinet top in the living room, or a bedroom chest of drawers. Because the shape is so sculptural, it also holds its own empty on a bookshelf or windowsill, where daylight shows off the ribbing. The styling props shown are not included.
The vase is solid coloured glass, mouth-blown into a mould, so the colour runs through the glass itself rather than sitting on the surface as a coating. Glass blown by mouth varies a little from piece to piece, so slight differences in the ribs are part of how it is made. Its weight is worth knowing if it is going on a narrow or high shelf. For styling, let its shape do the work: pair it with plain pale walls and natural textures such as rattan or linen, and keep the arrangement airy so the curves of the glass stay on view.
