Water Me When I Tilt
The action of this vase illustrates the state of the flower within. Made from handcrafted pewter, the vase stands proud when it is full of water, though as the level of water evaporates, the vase starts to lie down. An obvious metaphor for life. A great visual cue to know when to add more water. Now you have no one but yourself to blame if you can’t keep that precious rose alive longer than 2 days.

I always forget to water the plants around the house until they turn brown. I love the usefulness of things like this.
Lost for words… A stunning, beautifully original product and innovation. It has everything.
Nice idea ! How long will it take for me to get one at my door ?
i love it, it makes me want to be a flower even more!
As a florist I can tell you it’s the water getting dirty that kills flowers prematurely. It has to be either a very small volume to the vase or an extra hot room for the issue to be evaporation.
wait.. do flowers eat up that much water? can u just get a transparent glass vase? i don’t get the point of this vase..
The vase is nice. What is the price and where can I buy it?
The concept is EXCELLENT.
But does the water really evaporate that fast?
