Display your blooms to perfection in this elegant glass vase. It's made in an eye-catching curved shape, with a subtly textured design. This product is handmade. The colour chips are rolled into the glass, as it is blown into shape, creating a unique finish piece by piece. Due to the way this product is made, some variation in pattern will occur.
Our Stylist Says
The M&S Collection Glass Wave Vase in lilac shell is a stylish piece that adds subtle colour and texture to most interiors. I love how its soft lilac and blue tones bring a calming vibe, making it perfect for neutral or pastel palettes. It works well as a standalone statement on a side table or mantle, or grouped with other vases for a curated look. Practical styling tips include filling it with fresh or dried flowers for added interest, or leaving it empty as a sculptural accent. Its sculptural shape and gentle curves lend themselves well to contemporary or coastal-inspired spaces, and it’s versatile enough to sit comfortably in living rooms, bedrooms, or even bathrooms.

About Marks & Spencer
History and Expansion
Marks and Spencer, often lovingly called "Marks and Sparks" or "M&S", has been a staple in the UK market since its founding in 1884. Over the years, the brand has seen tremendous growth, with 1,064 stores across the UK and an additional 406 locations worldwide as of 2023.
Historically, M&S was celebrated for its commitment to selling British-made goods, pioneering the "St Michael" brand in 1928 which honoured its co-founder Michael Marks.
As they grew, M&S maintained its reputation for quality, fair value, and innovative customer policies, even allowing returns with full cash refunds regardless of purchase date.
Clothing & Home Business Endeavours
In recent years, M&S has focused on modernising its Clothing & Home business, striving to offer contemporary, stylish products that resonate with their 22 million customers.
A noteworthy move was their acquisition of Jaeger in 2021, a brand that shares a founding year with M&S. Under M&S's umbrella, Jaeger remains an independent brand, renowned for its timeless elegance, and is now available on M&S's website and in select M&S stores across the UK and Ireland.
Sustainability and Innovations
Throughout its existence, Marks and Spencer has demonstrated commitment to improving customer experience and sustainability.
In the 1950s, they introduced hygiene training for canteen staff, and by the 1960s had implemented thermostatically controlled refrigerators for enhanced energy efficiency.
M&S has been at the forefront of many retail innovations, from introducing "sell by dates" in the early '70s to enhance food quality, to banning smoking in all their stores as early as 1959 due to fire hazards.
The brand's long standing dedication to quality, customer relations, and sustainability remains evident in their practices today.
