A white tulip vase with an unusual square shape. This snow-white tulip vase is one of our most iconic tulip vases and is decorated on all sides with Delft Blue orchid flowers. The tulip vase has a square shape, and the characteristic spouts are all located at the top, pointing straight upward. The tulip vase was created after Queen Mary II commissioned potters in Delft to create a vase with which she could fill her apartments with fresh flowers. The tulip vase subsequently became incredibly popular and also played a significant role in tulip mania in the Netherlands, when some tulip varieties cost more than a canal house in Amsterdam. Such expensive flowers, of course, weren't placed in an ordinary vase. The various spouts of the tulip vase provide sturdy support for the delicate flower stems, preventing them from being damaged and ensuring they stay beautiful longer. Something we still benefit from today.
