Vase 012

Twelfth in a catalogued run of vessel designs, this one keeps to a simple rising silhouette and lets the form itself carry the interest instead of any applied pattern or motif. Vases like this are the workhorses of a print shelf. There is no scene to read and nothing tying it to a season or a style of room, so it sits as happily in a new-build flat as on a cottage windowsill — cut flowers on the table one week, a bundle of dried seed heads in the hallway the next. Odd numbers group best; three at staggered heights make a better arrangement than one large statement piece. Supplied as a single file. A sensible pick if you sell at markets or print gifts through the year, where a clean vessel shifts far more reliably than anything with a strong theme attached.
