How to choose a flower vase: glass, crystal, ceramic, tall
Buy yourself at least a couple of vases, but first figure out how to choose a vase for different parameters. She not only decorates the interior, she also performs practical functions. After all, you will not put a luxurious bouquet of roses in a regular jar.
How to choose a glass, crystal, ceramic or other vase for different interior styles
If you are an adherent of the classic style in the interior, vases made of crystal or metal will suit you. They are best combined with noble flowers such as roses or carnations. Glass is the perfect complement to modern interiors. It will decorate even minimalism, which generally does not perceive any decorative elements well. It is desirable that a glass vase be made in a simple form, but original design forms are also suitable. The main thing is to avoid excessive decorative elements.
A vase made of porcelain, ceramics and clay is an addition to the ethnic interior. It is more suitable for simple and delicate flowers, such as daisies or forget-me-nots.
In addition to the material, you also need to pay attention to the shape. If you have a few vases, then it is better to pick up something simple and versatile. So, a vase of light warm colors will perfectly accentuate any flower arrangement, will fit well into different styles of the interior and will be a decoration for the table. Vases of intricate shapes and shades are more demanding, so you should choose them with care. In addition, you can make a vase yourself from any container, drape it with a cloth or decorate it with ribbons.
How to choose a vase for high and low bouquets of flowers
According to all the rules, a vase must be selected depending on the number and size of flowers. Only in this way will she emphasize the beauty of this gift of nature. Here’s a simple diagram to help you figure it out:
- for a couple of flowers with short stems, a vase in the form of a bottle, test tube or a small decorative bottle is suitable;

- for a lush armful of short flowers, choose a fashionable and modern vase-cube or spherical vase.
It is best to have at least several different vases so that not a single bouquet will drive you into a dead end.
