Face Vases For Sale on 1stDibs

Find a variety of face vases available on 1stDibs. The range of distinct face vases — often made from ceramic, glass and art glass — can elevate any home. There are 87 antique and vintage face vases for sale at 1stDibs, while we also have 9 modern editions to choose from as well. Face vases have been produced for many years, with earlier versions available from the 18th Century and newer variations made as recently as the 21st Century. Face vases are generally popular furniture pieces, but Mid-Century Modern, Modern and Art Nouveau styles are often sought at 1stDibs. Large face vases can prove too imposing for some spaces, so the smaller face vases available at 1stDibs — each spanning 2.63 inches in width — may make for a better choice. Many face vases are appealing in their simplicity, but Murano, Fratelli Toso and Jaime Hayon produced popular face vases that are worth a look.

How Much are Face Vases?

Face vases can differ in price owing to various characteristics — the average selling price at 1stDibs is $1,079, while the lowest priced sells for $200 and the highest can go for as much as $56,623.

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.

Questions About Face Vases

  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    A face vase is a type of decorative object with an open top and a design that resembles a human face. In some cases, the facial features extend outwards from the vase. Other pieces feature carved, engraved or painted faces. On 1stDibs, find a selection of face vases.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Tiny vases are known as bud vases. These small, narrow vases are designed to hold one or two flowers, highlighting their unique beauty. Bud vases can be short or tall, cylindrical or globe-shaped, and clear or colored, but they typically have a narrow opening. Shop a collection of vintage and modern bud vases on 1stDibs.
