At once functional and decorative, the vase is an essential feature of our interiors, adding a designer touch. This decorative object is perfect for bringing a hint of greenery into our interior décor and comes in a wide variety of shapes and styles. This vessel is generally used to display a bouquet of flowers or dried flowers, though some turn it into a utensil pot, a carafe, a sculpture… give your imagination free rein and get creative! Displayed as a table centrepiece or on an elegant mango wood chest of drawers, large vases are perfect for brightening up your home décor, so treat yourself (and your florist) and take a look at our wide selection of designer vases!

The original, colourful White Dot M vase boasts a classic silhouette given a twist by a truly fascinating pattern. Handmade from blown glass, this model comes from the sublime Splash vase collection by Danish house Hay. The multiple layers of tinted glass create a pattern of multicoloured dots and streaks (white, dark blue, green and red): a playful composition enhanced by the vase's transparent base. These bold colours mean White Dot M works just as well in a homely interior as in a designer setting. Each piece is unique and will show off the artificial flowers or bouquets of pretty fresh blooms you place in it. The White Dot M blown glass vase is also available in size L and will look wonderful on the living room coffee table, with daylight streaming through it.

With its rectangular shape and countless ridges, the opaque terracotta vase from the Ridge collection by Muuto will bring a Scandinavian touch to your interior décor. The white Ridge vase also comes in terracotta, a rust tone that gives it a magnificent pottery-like look. Whether you use it as a vase for your floral arrangements or simply as a decorative object, this beautifully textured piece designed for the home will blend effortlessly into your interior. Picture this large vase with its geometric lines at the centre of the dining table, paired with small vases, pretty candles or original bowls. Ridge will also look wonderful placed elegantly on a stool in the bedroom.

Minimalist and poetic, the Avril vase collection features bucolic pieces inspired by Ikebana, the Japanese art of flower arranging. We owe these original, modular creations to French house Tsé & Tsé: each transparent or brown glass tube holds one or more flowers and lets you create the arrangement of your dreams, while the silver-coloured metal parts allow you to articulate the Avril vase however you please. Imagine each bud vase showcasing a pale pink orchid or a flowering stem on the teak console of a narrow Haussmann-style hallway or in a large, light-filled study.

The designers at 101 Copenhagen have created several wonderfully designed vases! Among these decorative pieces, one that stands out is Bulb, a dark grey ceramic vase whose textured relief gives it a rustic, ethnic feel that's most appealing. Available in beige, black and orange, as well as in three different sizes, the Bulb vase has an amphora-like shape and is perfect for decorating the whole house! Very chic, this decorative object is not waterproof, however, so it is better suited to dried flowers than to bouquets of fresh blooms. Placed on a rattan table near large mirrors in the lounge area, this vase will capture every gaze thanks to its very distinctive silhouette. 101 Copenhagen is also behind the light grey glazed Square Mini vase from the Sphere collection. This creation looks uncannily like a table lamp and will create quite the illusion on a side table or the dining room sideboard!

And because we never do things by halves, we also offer beautiful plants that slot easily into urban interiors: our Pikaplant palms and coffee plants in self-sufficient greenhouses for those without green fingers, and Adventive's plant creations to hang or display. Let the green in!

Frequently asked questions

How do I choose a vase for my home?

There are three main criteria. Size: 15-25 cm tall for short-stemmed flowers (cut roses, anemones, ranunculus), 30-50 cm for larger bouquets (eucalyptus, cherry blossom branches, peonies), and 50 cm+ for sculptural vases to be left empty as a statement piece on a console table or mantelpiece. Shape: narrow (slim neck) holds a bouquet compact, wide (flared neck) allows for a generous arrangement, round gathers the flowers together, and asymmetrical brings a sculptural feel. Material: matt ceramic for a soft Scandinavian look, tinted blown glass for lightness, genuine marble for contemporary luxury, and patinated metal for an industrial edge. To integrate a vase successfully into your home, choose a material and colour that speak to other existing elements: a terracotta ceramic vase on an oak table, a white marble vase on a dark shelf. Tip: arrange several vases of different sizes and shapes (3-5 vases) rather than a single vase standing alone, as this creates a genuine visual display. Vary the heights (one tall, two medium, one small) to create rhythm.

How do I arrange several vases together?

The art of arranging vases follows a few simple rules. The rule of odd numbers: 3, 5 or 7 vases together always work better than even numbers (which can look static). Size hierarchy: 1 large vase (statement, 40-60 cm), 2 medium (25-35 cm) and 1-2 small (10-20 cm). This progression of sizes creates a visual rhythm. Stylistic consistency: choose a maximum of 2-3 materials (for example matt ceramic + blown glass, or marble + metal). Avoid a patchwork of materials that are too different (ceramic + wood + glass + metal + crystal gives a jumbled effect). The palette: 2-3 harmonious colours that work together (for example ivory + sand + terracotta, or white + black + brass). Positioning: group your vases on a tray, a console table, a mantelpiece or a side table, rather than scattering them around the room. This creates a strong focal point. Vary what's inside: 2-3 vases with flowers or branches, the others empty (empty vases are sculptural pieces in their own right). Refresh the flowers every week to keep everything looking fresh.

Which design vase brands are worth choosing?

Several brands offer iconic vases. HAY has the Splash collection (multicoloured blown glass), Round (ceramic with soft curves) and Pebbles (rounded shapes). HKliving popularised retro 70s ceramic vases with reactive glazes. Anissa Kermiche is an absolute benchmark for anthropomorphic sculptural vases (stylised female forms). Serax produces high-end designer vases (Sergio Herman and Marie Michielssen collections). &Klevering offers bold vases with original patterns. Ferm Living has the Pond, Speckle (speckled ceramic) and Chinese Vase designs. AYTM produces the Globe vases in sophisticated matt ceramic. 101 Copenhagen offers the Sculpt vases with pure, minimalist shapes. For blown glass, take a look at Fragile (French), Fundamental Berlin (German) and &Tradition. For marble, AYTM and 101 Copenhagen. For more affordable budgets, Bloomingville, Hubsch, Bazar Bizar and House Doctor offer beautiful ceramic vases between 30 and 150 euros. To start a collection well: 1 signature vase (200-500 euros, iconic brand) + 3-4 secondary vases (40-150 euros each).
