The Deriva borosilicate glass vases by Cristina Celestino are filled with [two-toned glass designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tip-top-glass) that are modeled after the fishing floats used to lure in bait.

Tall and narrow, the mouth of the vases has a beaker-like quality that looks fragile and dainty, perfect for holding [long-stemmed flowers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grid-vase), yet are decorative enough to hold their own. The wider-based vessels feature small perforations along the middle that let air penetrate inside and are a unique way to hold small fish. With a fish swimming inside, the intended look of the fishing lure is complete.

With several potential purposes, the borosilicate glass vases make a great gift for new homeowners who are looking for pieces that are functional.
