Wooden Bud Vase — Glass Tube, 2 Heights

A glass cylinder set into a wooden base, just enough to let a single stem tell the whole story.

A simple glass cylinder, set into a turned wooden base: this bud vase is designed to showcase a single stem at a time. A dried flower, an olive branch, a sprig of eucalyptus — that's all it takes to give a corner of a room some character.

Drawing on Japanese ikebana traditions, this vase pairs the warmth of wood with the clarity of glass. The narrow, deep inner tube holds a fresh flower or a dry bouquet depending on the season. Available in two heights to combine or use on their own, it finds its place on a shelf, a side table or a windowsill. Its formal simplicity is a deliberate choice: letting the flower take centre stage.

Features:

• Material: turned wooden base, glass inner tube
• 2 heights: tall and short
• Style: japandi, ikebana
• Use: single stem, fresh or dried flower
• The base can hold a little water in the glass tube

How to use it: Gently slide the glass tube into the base. Fill it two-thirds full for a fresh flower, or leave it dry for a branch. Combine a pair (one tall, one short) for a more structured effect. Wipe the wood if any water overflows.

Our approach: Ikebana teaches that a single, well-placed element is worth more than an abundant bouquet. This vase embodies that minimalist philosophy, where every stem tells something.
