Modern Decorative Vases

About

How to choose and style decorative vases What material of vase suits my style? Choose the material for the mood you want. Pick a smooth ceramic vase for a soft, contemporary look, warm mango wood for organic texture, or matte cement for a grounded, architectural feel. Match glossy ceramic to a polished room, and lean on wood and cement for the natural, tactile direction interiors are trending toward. How do I style vases so they don't look like an afterthought? Group, don't scatter. Cluster three vases of varied height and width on a mantel or console, and let the tallest anchor the arrangement. Stand a single large floor vase in an empty corner to draw the eye up. Keep the grouping to one or two materials so it reads intentional. Do vases need flowers to work? Leave them empty if you like. Use a sculptural ceramic or cement vase as a decorative object on its own, which is why our designers keep them as a no-upkeep staple. If you do fill a vase, choose a few branches or dried stems, which last longer and suit the material better than a fussy bouquet. Where do vases have the most impact? Set a vase on a surface at eye level or just below: a console, a mantel, a dining table centre, or a shelf. Pair a vase with artificial greenery for a low-maintenance arrangement, or stand a tall floor vase beside other décor .
