I bought this vase along with 11 cherry blossom stems. This vase is gorgeous. The shape is perfect to break up all the straight lines in the room. I am sad i did not purchase a second one for my bedroom during the very best sale. I like it so much that i may not even wait for sale. This way, i won't have to switch out my spring florals when fall arrives. I can simply put away the vase with the blossoms in it and bring out my other vase with fall stems.
