Cylindrical, conical, ball-shaped, without forgetting the essential soliflores, the vases come in all sizes, colors and for all styles. We can therefore ask ourselves how to choose them?
The choice of vase is very important to highlight your new bouquet of flowers and accessorize your interior. Beyond the aesthetic criteria, it is useful to take into account the practical criteria so that your flowers remain beautiful as long as possible.
1. Size
Small, medium or large? This is the question we ask ourselves. You simply have to respect the “rule of thirds”. As the name suggests, the bouquet should be three times larger than your vase. Thus the vase must represent a third of the height of your bouquet.
2. Shape
The cylindrical vase
Also called tube vase, it is ideal for large bouquets of flowers but also for classic round bouquets. Roses, tulips, hydrangeas or even anemones will go perfectly with this type of vase.
The conical vase
As its name suggests, the conical vase is shaped like a cone. The opening in height will give more freedom to your bouquet, which will directly give it a more rural style. For this, flowers such as cosmos, grasses and daisies will be well highlighted.
The soliflore vase
Very tall and thin, both chic and elegant, the soliflore vase highlights one flower, or even two or three. It is not suitable for a bouquet of flowers but rather for branches of eucalyptus gunnii, cotton or dried flowers.
The ball vase
Iconic and design, the ball vase allows the stems of your bouquet to take their ease while keeping the flowers in place in an aesthetic way. They go very well with dahlias, carnations, anemones or lilacs.
3. Color
A transparent vase
A timeless classic, the transparent vase makes everyone agree! It is essential to have because it is the one that will match the most bouquets, all flowers will be suitable. It is ideal for large and colorful bouquets and helps to give a feeling of spaciousness in a smaller space.
A colorful vase
In terms of vase color: anything is possible! However, to avoid taking any risks, go for simplicity with a white, black, beige, powder pink or gray vase. They will go with everything! It may also be a good idea to match the color of the vase to that of the flowers in your bouquet.
