This cylinder vase is 31 cm tall and is part of the Cabinet des Fleurs collection by Heinen Delfts Blauw. Crafted from high-quality ceramic, the vase features a sleek cylindrical silhouette that provides a contemporary canvas for a classic Delft blue illustration. The decoration depicts a richly filled flower vase overflowing with blooms, inspired by the sumptuous floral still lifes of the Dutch Masters of the 17th century. In particular, the refined botanical compositions of Rachel Ruysch served as an important source of inspiration for this design.
Cabinet des Fleurs draws inspiration from the art and curiosity cabinets of the 17th century, where remarkable objects were carefully collected to inspire admiration and wonder. The collection brings this historic tradition of collecting back to life through home accessories that unite lavish floral artistry, refined ornaments, exotic curiosities and iconic Delft blue motifs. Like the treasured showpieces of the Dutch Golden Age, each object tells its own story while forming part of a greater whole.
The illustration brings together different layers of Dutch artistic heritage. Displayed on the contemporary vase is a classic Delft blue flower vase, abundantly filled with blossoming branches and flowers. The result is a layered design in which ceramics, painting and floral artistry come together. The clean cylindrical form creates a contemporary contrast with the opulent decoration, making the vase a refined statement piece with or without flowers.
Display the vase as a striking standalone piece or fill it with a lush bouquet to bring the illustration to life. Pair it with the other vases, wall plates and candlesticks from the Cabinet des Fleurs collection and build your own personal cabinet of curiosities, one piece at a time, creating an interior filled with character, history and stories.
