The simple and versatile white vase can suit any style of décor. Whether you’re looking at a geometric and angular modern planter with a succulent, or an elegant Victorian water pitcher with a hand-painted basin, white vases are available in an almost endless variety. Many styles of white vases are quiet and understated, which makes them ideal for complementing, rather than overwhelming, your space. That means it’s easy to include a white vase with a centerpiece or decorative arrangement.
Since white is neutral, you can choose any accessories you like for your vase. Botanical arrangements are popular, and you can use any colors of flowers, leaves, or branches to accompany your décor. Arrangements of multiple white vases add interest and impact to your display. Change up the sizes, shapes, and levels of the vases you select to create something that looks professionally designed.
Let’s take a look at examples of white vase décor that will inspire you to bring this versatile and beautiful accessory into your space!
