How Much is a Bubble Vase Signed?
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.
- What is a bubble vase?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A bubble vase is a vessel with an open top and a curvy body. Depending on the design, a bubble vase may have a simple round shape or a more complex silhouette with two or more round sections stacked one atop the other. Most bubble vases are glass, and people frequently use them to hold fresh, silk or dried flowers. Find a variety of bubble vases on 1stDibs.
- Are all Daum vases signed?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes, all Daum vases are signed. Authentic Daum glass work will have the signature “Daum Nancy” and incorporate the cross of Lorraine. Looking for a signature is one of the best ways to ensure authenticity. Browse a range of authentic Daum vases and other glassware on 1stDibs.
- Are Loetz vases signed?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A few are, but most aren’t. Between 1880 and 1940, according to scholars, there doesn’t seem to have been clearly defined rules around when glassware needed a mark or name and how they should be applied. A variety of marks were used, if inconsistently, including marks that had elements of the von Spaun family coat of arms and the more common, but still rare, “Loetz Austria” mark used by the factory. Shop a selection of Loetz vases from top sellers on 1stDibs.
