How to choose a vase as a gift

Petali set of three bud vases with dried grasses on a wooden table

Short answer: pick a vase that suits the person's home and the flowers they actually buy. A small bud vase is a safe, easy gift; a sculptural shape works for someone who already has everything; and a vase that holds water is always more useful than one that doesn't.

Three questions to ask first

  1. What is their style? Calm and minimal, warm and earthy, or bold and colourful?
  2. What do they put in a vase? A single stem from the garden, a supermarket bunch, or dried flowers that last for months?
  3. Where will it go? A windowsill and a bedside table suit small vases; a dining table or console can take a statement piece.

Our picks by occasion

Birthday

A bud vase is easy to love and easy to place. Try Foglia, with leaf veins climbing the body, or the round, ribbed Bolla.

Housewarming

Choose something calm that fits any interior: the ribbed Zen or the soft, wavy-rimmed Onde.

Valentine's Day and anniversaries

Two hearts: the faceted Cuore in red, or the smooth Amore in pastel pink.

Christmas

A touch of gold for the festive table: the twisted star-shaped Stella, or the wavy Oro in warm café latte. More ideas in the Winter Collection.

For someone who has everything

The ring-shaped Anello is a sculpture in its own right, and the Petali set gives them three bud vases to arrange however they like.

Make it a complete gift

  • Add a few stems: dried bunny-tail grass or a single fresh rose looks good in almost any of our vases.
  • Ship it straight to them: enter their address at checkout and we send it from Malta with DHL Express and tracking.
  • Every vase holds water, so fresh flowers are welcome. Just keep it away from heat above 60°C.

Quick answers

Can I send a vase directly to someone else?

Yes. Enter their delivery address at checkout. We ship to Malta, Gozo and every EU country.

What if they don't like it?

You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind. See our refund policy.

Is a vase a good gift for someone who doesn't buy flowers?

Yes, if you choose a sculptural one. Shapes like Anello, Stella or Cuore look good empty, and dried flowers last for months.
