Poole Pottery Modernist Floral Vase
Located in Fort Lauderdale, FL
The design of this Poole Pottery vase belongs to a relatively understudied figure in ceramics design history: Truda Carter. Working as lead designer at the firm for nearly 30 years, Carter was responsible for developing the Poole aesthetic. This vase represents the vibrant Modernist style for which she, and consequently Poole Pottery, was known. This Poole Pottery vase features Truda Carter’s RK pattern, which combines vibrant florals framed within geometric borders. The design is slightly more delicate than other Poole patterns, and the relative sparseness of the pattern allows the beautiful white earthenware to show through. Truda took inspiration for her designs from a variety of sources, including Dutch Gouda pottery, Jacobean embroidery...

Large Iridescent Art Deco Footed Myra Art Glass Vase Attributed to WMF
Located in Miami Beach, FL
Stunning large art glass vase attributed to WMF in the 1930s. Measures: 10.5" Biography from the Glass Museum: Although WMF produced glass for more then 100 years, their period of triumph in glass only lasted from 1926 to 1936. WMF, or the Württembergische Metallwarenfabrik, was essentially a metal works. They started making glass in 1883 when a glass house was built at Geisslingen near Stuttgart. The company was, and still is, a producer of metal tableware, particularly silvered flatware, and they began by producing their own glass inserts for cruet stands, open salts, cookie jars and similar articles. Glass was never a core business - metal was. The original 1883 glass house was destroyed during the First World War and a new, more modern facility opened in 1922. At first, production of inserts continued as before, but soon pieces decorated with cut olives and facets left the factory. The young glass designer Karl Wiedmann perfected the technique of iridized surfaces and the resulting "MYRA"-Kristall entered production in 1926. The vase above is a WMF Myra vase. Myra is the name given to the iridized glass produced by WMF from 1926. Based on the same techniques used by Tiffany and Loetz, the glassmaker Karl Wiedmann brought it to the production stage after experimentation at the Zwiesel glass school. The glass is a crystal formulated with silver nitrate instead of lead. The silver gives the glass a rich translucent amber color, but more importantly, it comes to the surface when reduced in the oven. At the moment when the glass is covered in a thin layer of silver it is etched with iridescent metal salts, resulting in a bluish green golden lustre with a matt finish. As an additional decorative element, some vases were blown out to achieve a crackled surface. When lit from behind, all Myra glass...

Antique and Vintage Vases for Sale

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.
