About Wooden Vases & Vases for Dried Flowers
Wooden Vases
A wooden vase is turned from a single block, so the grain wraps the whole body and no two match. Wood moves with humidity, which is why most are made for dried stems rather than water unless the listing says the interior is sealed.
A Vase for Dried Flowers
A vase for dried flowers needs a narrow neck relative to its height so tall stems stay upright instead of splaying. Weight in the base matters more than with fresh flowers, since dry stems carry their bulk at the top. See the dried pampas grass and flowers collection for stems.
Travertine and Marble Vases
Travertine has open pores and a warm sand tone; marble is denser and cooler with visible veining. Both are heavy enough to hold a tall arrangement without tipping. Stone is cut and hollowed rather than moulded, so sizes vary slightly piece to piece.
Handmade and Rustic Vases
Handmade vases carry tool marks and small irregularities from the making. That is the point of them rather than a flaw. For the ceramic side of this, the handcrafted ceramic vases guide covers glazes and shapes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you put water in a wooden vase?
Only if the product page says the interior is sealed. Untreated wood absorbs water, swells and eventually splits. Most wooden vases are made for dried stems. If you want fresh flowers in one, use a glass insert.
Are travertine vases waterproof?
Travertine is porous and will absorb water and stain unless it has been sealed. Use it for dried arrangements, or set a glass or plastic liner inside for fresh flowers.
What vase shape suits pampas grass?
A tall vase with a neck narrower than its body. Pampas stems are top heavy, so a wide-mouthed vessel lets them fan out and fall. Height of vase to stem is roughly one to two.
How do you clean a wooden vase?
Wipe the outside with a dry or barely damp cloth. Do not soak it and do not put it in a dishwasher. If the wood looks dry after a year or two, a little food-safe mineral oil brings the grain back.
Do the stone vases vary in colour?
Yes. Travertine and marble are cut from natural stone, so veining, pore pattern and tone shift from piece to piece. The photographs show a representative example rather than the exact item you receive.
