Spring is here and the Tulip Season too.
I have chosen a contemporary collection of tulip vases that I think are stunning - any of which will make this spring season a very special one.
Every tulip season I remember my grandfather telling me the Tulip mania story. I don’t remember all the details, but that is why we have Wikipedia.
Tulip mania was a period in the Dutch Golden Age during which contract prices for bulbs of the recently introduced Turkish tulips reached extraordinarily high levels and then suddenly collapsed. At the peak of tulip mania in February 1637, tulip contracts sold for more than 10 times the annual income of a skilled craftsman. It is generally considered the first recorded speculative bubble (or economic bubble) - Wikipedia
Thankfully now days tulips are very affordable and everybody can enjoy them. Doesn’t matter how beautiful the vase is we can still reflect in their elegance. Of course, if you can have a vase as inspired as the tulip itself, why not?
