What Is a Decorative Vase?
A decorative vase is a vessel designed to hold fresh or dried floral arrangements while serving as a standalone sculptural object when displayed empty. Quality decorative vases feature artisan details -- such as hand-applied porcelain flowers, glazed finishes, or organic shapes -- that make them functional art pieces for tables, mantels, and consoles.
What You Get With the Currey & Co Flower Maria Vase
- Hand-Thrown Porcelain Construction -- each vase is individually shaped on a potter's wheel, ensuring subtle variations that distinguish it from mass-produced ceramic pieces.
- Applied Porcelain Flowers -- delicate blooms are individually formed and hand-applied to the shoulder, creating a graceful, flowing pattern that catches light and shadow.
- Classic Shoulder Silhouette -- the 14-inch height and 6-inch diameter provide balanced proportions for both tall stems and compact arrangements without overwhelming tabletops.
- Crisp White Finish -- the monochromatic surface acts as a neutral canvas that complements any color palette or interior style, from modern to traditional.
- Versatile Display Options -- substantial 6-pound weight provides stability for tall dried flowers, fresh pampas grass, or display as an unfilled sculptural accent.
How Do You Style Decorative Vases on a Mantel?
Position the Flower Maria vase as an anchor piece on one end of your mantel, balancing it with decorative objects such as sculptural bowls or candleholders on the opposite side. Layer in varying heights by adding smaller pieces from the vases and jars collection to create visual interest, or showcase it alone on a console table flanked by home accents for a curated, gallery-style arrangement.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What size floor vase do I need for pampas grass?
- Pampas grass typically requires a floor vase 24 to 36 inches tall; this 14-inch table vase works best for shorter dried stems or as an accent piece on elevated surfaces.
- What is the difference between a vase and a ginger jar?
- A vase features an open top designed to hold stems, while a ginger jar is a lidded vessel traditionally used for storage that now serves primarily as decorative display.
- What type of vase works best for dried flowers?
- Ceramic vases with narrow openings -- such as this 6-inch diameter porcelain piece -- provide stability for dried botanicals and prevent stems from splaying outward.
- How do you style decorative vases on a mantel?
- Use odd-numbered groupings or a single statement vase like the Flower Maria as an asymmetrical anchor, balancing its visual weight with smaller objects on the opposite side.
- Does the Flower Maria vase ship free?
- Yes, LOOMLAN provides free shipping on all orders to the continental USA with no minimum purchase requirement.
- What goes in a large floor vase besides flowers?
- Consider natural branches, decorative birch poles, tall feathers, or leave the vessel empty to emphasize its sculptural form as a standalone art object.
