Vase1 5 Vase

One of a numbered run of vase studies, this is a decorative vessel for the parts of a room that need a little height: the end of a shelf, a hall table, the gap beside a stack of books. It is designed to be looked at rather than filled, and it holds its own standing empty. Dried material suits it if you want it doing work. Bleached grasses, teasels, honesty or a few stalks of pampas all sit well against a plain repeating form, and the vase stays the focus rather than disappearing behind the arrangement. Printed at two or three sizes and grouped together, pieces from a series like this read as a considered set instead of a shelf of duplicates. It is an easy first decorative project for someone who has just bought a printer and wants something for the house.
