9 Ceramic & Glass Vases To Add To Our Spaces
From Flowers To Fruits, These Vases Hold Everything
Whether you pronounce it vaaz or vayse, vases are a staple in any home. And perhaps it’s because these vessels, while meant for holding flowers, plants, fruits, and more (pencils or utensils, anyone?), also add a touch of elegance to our space.
There’s something special about ceramic and glass vases, in particular. Not only are they sustainable, but they’re often handmade by artisans and potters. Our favorites come from makers all around the world—though, of course, you can find numerous secondhand vases at thrift stores, garage and estate sales, or your local makers’ market, too!
