Design Elements to Consider When Shopping for Natural Vases
Vases are the perfect repository for fresh cut flowers, plant stems, dried botanicals, even exotic feathers. There’s so many decorative elements and ways to use vases and urns. Every natural vase is an opportunity to display something beautiful or add something visually interesting to a space.
The texture, curvature and color of an urn or vase are important design features to consider. For example, a tall floor vase can vary from the traditional look of a smooth, shiny, and curvy object – to a more modern look of a matte and textured finish with straight lines.
Neutral earthy tones like ivory, beige, gray and wood tones are beautiful in muted matte finishes. Textured organic ceramic urns, carved wood vases and unpolished natural stone vases are popular finds in the neutral earthy color category. Whereas glossy vases tend to have more curves and are trending styles for something like an organic glass vase or shiny metallic urn.
The really cool thing about urns and vases is you can use them practically anywhere in your home. An organic vase goes beautifully on a countertop, desk, coffee table, shelf or tabletop. Use them as centerpieces, decorative accents or to hold useful items like kitchen utensils or pencils… Bottom line, natural vases evoke a sense of nature and tranquility, where their simple forms complement the gamut of decorative styles.

What Makes a Vase Organic? (hint - wabi sabi)
Eco friendly vases (and many other dĂŠcor pieces) are often made from wood or other types of natural materials such as glass, ceramic clay or minerals. These materials have unique textures and patterns, giving each vase a one-of-a-kind character. The term Wabi Sabi refers to this notion of embracing these forms inspired by nature, with curves that resemble stems, leaves, or other organic forms. In this manner, Wabi-Sabi is a Japanese philosophy and interior design aesthetic that embraces the beauty of any substance or being in its most natural and raw form, giving a unique aesthetic and sense of comfort. Its natural simplicity and flaws are embraced. In fact, Wabi-sabi looks into life and into design as 'imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete'. And thatâs what all our Healthier Homes collections are about, including organic vases and natural urns. These are examples of the Wabi Sabi philosophy of design. Being that they are handmade, no two are alike, and the imperfections are characteristic of quality handcrafted artwork.
A Natural Vase vs an Eco Friendly Urn
A natural urn made from rock is often designed to look like it was carved from a single block of stone. As such, natural urns also usually have a simple and timeless design, with a focus on the natural beauty of the materials. An organic vase can be carved from identical materials but itâs designed to be used on a day to bay basis. You can think of urns as being more formal vs vases are for causal decorative occasions. Regardless of whether youâre looking a formal occasion or everyday casual, weâre all about materials that are nontoxic. In addition to their decorative value, each eco friendly vase can also be functional. Organic vases can display fresh or dried flowers, while natural urns may have a lid and can store smaller items such as potpourri or jewelry. Both can also be used as a focal point in a room or outdoor space by themselves without the need for any filler. At the end of the day, the beauty of a natural wood vase or natural ceramic vase is complemented by the functionality of the piece. With their unique textures and forms, these pieces are perfect for those who appreciate natural beauty and simplicity in their decor. Whether used for display or practical purposes, natural vases are an excellent choice for upping the dĂŠcor factor.

Did You Know, an Organic Vase Can Help to Reduce Waste?

By choosing sustainable vases made from materials found in nature, you can reduce waste and support sustainability efforts. Glass is infinitely recyclable, and many wine and other glass bottles are beautiful reused in a second life as a flower bud vase or tree topper.
