What is vase pottery?

Vase pottery is a type of decorative object with an open top formed out of earthenware or clay. Not all vases are clay, however. Artisans may also produce them out of glass, aluminum, stone, marble, bronze and stainless steel. Typically, people arrange flowers in vases, but they can also function as standalone decorations. You'll find a large collection of antique and vintage vases on 1stDibs.

Finding the Right Vases-vessels for You

For thousands of years, vases and vessels have had meaningful functional value in civilizations all over the world. In Ancient Greece, ceramic vessels were used for transporting water and dry goods, holding bouquets of flowers, for storage and more. Outside of utilitarian use, in cities such as Athens, vases were a medium for artistic expression — pottery was a canvas for artists to illustrate their cultures’ unique people, beliefs and more. And pottery skills were handed down from fathers to sons.

Every antique and vintage vase and vessel, from decorative Italian urns to French 19th-century Louis XVI–style lidded vases, carries with it a rich, layered story.

On 1stDibs, there is a vast array of vases and vessels in a variety of colors, sizes and shapes. Our collection features vessels made from delicate materials such as ceramic and glass as well as durable materials like rustproof metals and stone.
