This 17 cm tall cylinder vase is part of the Cabinet des Fleurs collection by Heinen Delfts Blauw. Crafted from high-quality ceramic, the vase features a compact, bold cylindrical silhouette that beautifully showcases its rich Delft blue decoration. Set against a crisp white background, a lavish composition of flowers and fruit unfolds, inspired by the sumptuous still lifes of the Dutch Masters of the 17th century. In particular, the refined botanical paintings 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 combination of ripe fruit, blossoming flowers and graceful branches reflects the richness and layered compositions of classic Dutch still-life paintings. Every illustration is carefully composed, revealing new details with every glance. The compact cylindrical form gives this historic visual language a contemporary character, allowing the vase to complement both modern and traditional interiors with ease.
Display the vase as a refined decorative piece on a sideboard, windowsill or side table, or fill it with a small bouquet to bring the illustration even more vividly 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.
