Are you back from a picnic or from a trip with a bunch of
flowers in your hand, ready to put it into a beautiful vase?
I left space of a whole post to this theme because it
opens a huge chapter of interior decoration.
A vase is not only functional, it's a real decor
experience, that reflects the taste and the idea itself of a house.
Not for nothing the world's evils are mythologically
enclosed in a vase! In the well known tale by the Greek Esiodus, a
beautiful vase was given to Pandora by Zeus, who recommended never to open it,
but the young woman was very curious and soon took off the lid, liberating all
the world's evils: old age, jealousy, illness, madness and vice. On the bottom
only hope remained, that the young woman soon released to make people's lives
more tolerable after the arrival of evils.
I find vases just represent this hope, a promise of
something that is to come, a way to be
ready to receive.
Therefore let's get ready at our best with the right
spirit:
if you are a free spirit and want to portray a casual
style to your flowers, nothing better than the
Paper bag vases by Makoto Komatsu, they look like recycled
bread bags!
Still on the paper theme the beautiful origami vases, born
from the collaboration between the Israeli
designer Ofir Zucker and the artist Ilan Garibi; the pipe inserted
avoids wetting and spoiling the paper work.
If you feel ready to present origami designed and made by
yourself, go wild on the site

but prefer something easier, here are some clay origami vases, also
beautiful!!!!
For those who love the decorative power of vases here are
