Finding the Right vases for You

Whether it’s a Chinese Han dynasty glazed ceramic wine vessel, a work of Murano glass or a hand-painted Scandinavian modern stoneware piece, a fine vase brings a piece of history into your space as much as it adds a sophisticated dynamic. 

Like sculptures or paintings, antique and vintage vases are considered works of fine art. Once offered as tributes to ancient rulers, vases continue to be gifted to heads of state today. Over time, decorative porcelain vases have become family heirlooms to be displayed prominently in our homes — loved pieces treasured from generation to generation.

The functional value of vases is well known. They were traditionally utilized as vessels for carrying dry goods or liquids, so some have handles and feature an opening at the top (where they flare back out). While artists have explored wildly sculptural alternatives over time, the most conventional vase shape is characterized by a bulbous base and a body with shoulders where the form curves inward.

Owing to their intrinsic functionality, vases are quite possibly versatile in ways few other art forms can match. They’re typically taller than they are wide. Some have a neck that offers height and is ideal for the stems of cut flowers. To pair with your mid-century modern decor, the right vase will be an elegant receptacle for leafy snake plants on your teak dining table, or, in the case of welcoming guests on your doorstep, a large ceramic floor vase for long tree branches or sticks — perhaps one crafted in the Art Nouveau style — works wonders.

Interior designers include vases of every type, size and style in their projects — be the canvas indoors or outdoors — often introducing a splash of color and a range of textures to an entryway or merely calling attention to nature’s asymmetries by bringing more organically shaped decorative objects into a home.

On 1stDibs, you can browse our collection of vases by material, including ceramic, glass, porcelain and more. Sizes range from tiny bud vases to massive statement pieces and every size in between.

    There are many reasons a bathroom vanity might have legs. This includes because the european style had legs for moving the furniture around. They also help make the furniture look more custom.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023
    Yes, bathroom sinks do come in standard sizes. Standard round and oval sinks typically come in 16-, 17-, 18-, 19- and 20-inch diameters, while standard rectangular sinks measure somewhere between 19 to 24 inches in width by 16 to 23 inches in length. However, not all manufacturers produce sinks in every standard size, and some also offer sinks in sizes that are smaller or larger than standards. On 1stDibs, shop an assortment of sinks.

Shop a collection of antique and vintage vanities from some of the world’s top dealers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 21, 2024
    In contemporary art, conceptual art is a movement that began in the 1960s. Artists producing conceptual art assign more importance to the idea behind the art than to the piece itself. An example is Joseph Kosuth’s One and Three Chairs, a piece consisting of a real chair, a photograph of a chair and the dictionary definition of the word chair. When the work was displayed, Kosuth included instructions for any chair to be photographed and then displayed beside its image. In this way, the chair itself is not the artwork. Rather, the art comes from examining the way the object, image and words provide competing and complementary definitions of what a chair is. Find a large selection of fine art on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019

    Fine art is a category of art comprising works with purely aesthetic purpose, as opposed to applied art, which serves a practical function.

On 1stDibs, find a variety of original artwork from top artists.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2024
    Many people consider KAWS’s art type to be Pop art. The style first emerged in the 1950s. In stark contrast to traditional artistic practice, Pop art’s practitioners drew on imagery from popular culture, using things like comic books, advertising, product packaging and other commercial media to create original paintings, prints and sculptures that celebrated ordinary life in the most literal way. In his work, KAWS similarly appropriates pop phenomena like Mickey Mouse, the Smurfs, the Simpsons and SpongeBob SquarePants. Shop a selection of KAWS art on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019

    Fine art denotes work of aesthetic value but no functional purpose, whereas decorative art is both visually appealing and functional.

  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019

    The term contemporary is applied to art by 21st-century artists; modern art refers to works created from the1880s and through the 1960s.

  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023
    Fossil art is a real fossil that has been mounted in a way that allows you to display it as a decorative accent. Some fossil art hangs on a wall, while others rest on tables like sculptures. Shop a selection of fossil art on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019

    Figurative art is representational, depicting subjects found in the real world.

  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    A relief, in art, is a sculptural form where sculpted patterns or images remain attached to a solid background. Reliefs give the illusion that the image was raised out of the background plane.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    A reproduction in art is a copy of another original work of art. This may be a painting, drawing, print, or other, but there is no creative process involved and they often have very little value unless they are limited.
