Yellowpoint Gray Vase, Large

This vase is crafted from 100% glass, which offers several functional advantages. Glass is naturally non-porous, making it highly resistant to bacteria buildup that can cause flowers to wilt prematurely. Unlike some porous ceramics, a glass vessel provides a clean, hygienic environment for fresh stems while offering a sleek, contemporary aesthetic that allows light to pass through, adding a sense of airiness to your decor.

Absolutely. This item is designed as a sculptural decorative accent. Its textured pattern and contemporary smoke gray hue provide enough visual weight to stand alone on a side table or inside a glass-front cabinet. The play of light through the textured glass creates shifting shadows and highlights, making it a sophisticated art object even when it isn't holding a floral arrangement.

Yes. While this is a "large" category vase due to its 12-inch height, it features a very efficient 4" x 4" footprint. This slim profile makes it an ideal choice for urban apartment living or smaller suburban homes where surface space on mantels, floating shelves, or entryway console tables may be limited. Its verticality adds visual interest and height without requiring a large surface area.

To preserve the smoke gray finish and textured pattern, we recommend regular dusting with a soft, lint-free cloth. For a deeper clean, especially after use with fresh flowers, wash the interior with mild soap and warm water. To prevent hard water spots or cloudiness, dry the glass immediately with a soft cloth. For the narrow 4-inch opening, a soft-bristle bottle brush can help reach the base without scratching the glass surface.

For a large vase like this one, we recommend following the "golden ratio" of floral design: your flower stems should be approximately 1.5 to 2 times the height of the vessel. Since this vase stands 12 inches tall, look for blooms with stems around 18 to 24 inches long. This creates a balanced, professional look that ensures the arrangement doesn't look stunted or top-heavy.

Gray is a versatile neutral that anchors a variety of color palettes. For a cohesive contemporary look, pair this textured smoke gray piece with other cool-toned accents like blue or silver. If your room features warmer tones, the translucent nature of the glass helps it blend seamlessly without clashing. Our styling experts suggest grouping it with other decorative objects in odd numbers—such as a shorter ceramic bowl or a stack of books—to create a curated, intentional display.
