Handmade Recycled Glass Vases
The recycled glass vases and specialized hyacinth vases bring a touch of sustainable elegance to your floral displays. Each piece is hand-blown from molten "cullet" (recycled glass fragments), resulting in a thick, high-quality finish that catches the light beautifully.
The Collection
-
Floral Vases: Available in various organic silhouettes—from tall, slender cylinders for long-stemmed lilies to wide-bellied jars for lush bouquets.
-
Hyacinth (Bulb) Vases: Specifically designed with a narrow "waist" and a cupped top. This allows the bulb to sit securely above the water line while the roots grow down into the reservoir, making it easy to force blooms indoors.
Artisanal Details
-
The "Seed" Effect: You may notice tiny, delicate air bubbles trapped within the glass. These are not flaws but "seeds"—a hallmark of hand-blown recycled glass that adds texture and character.
-
Subtle Tints: Depending on the recycled batch, the glass often carries a soft, ethereal glow in shades of seafoam green, pale aqua, or clear flint.
-
Fire-Polished Rims: Every rim is finished by hand under high heat, ensuring a smooth, rounded edge that is safe and durable.
Why Recycled Glass?
-
Eco-Friendly Decor: By repurposing existing glass, we significantly reduce the carbon footprint compared to manufacturing new "virgin" glass.
-
Refractive Beauty: Recycled glass has a unique density that creates stunning light refractions, making even a single stem look like a centerpiece.
Design Tip: Pair a hand-marbled paper basket (from the previous collection) with a recycled glass vase for a bedside setup that feels both intentional and eco-conscious.
