Description
I am a Bulb Vase. Though the flowers may wither and wane, a vase I will stoutly remain. As the petals do fade, still I stay unafraid, and I’ll always be here at your aid.
Curator’s Notes
The smooth curves of this vase remind me of an ancient Greek amphora. The Greeks would use their amphoras to transport large quantities of wine and various other liquid goods. You could also fill this little vase up with wine, but I don’t think it would get you very far. A mini bouquet of flowers is probably more suitable.
Bulb Vase was curated by Angélique Chmielewski
