# Sheathed Jar Vases The Lace Vase Turns Recycled Bottles into Ravishing Vessels By Amelia Roblin | Published 2011-09-02 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lace-vase References: [notcot.org](http://www.notcot.org/post/42764/) & [milkdesign.hk](http://milkdesign.com.hk/) It is impossible not to adore the Lace Vase for the way that it can turn ordinary objects into opulent ones. The creatives at Milk Design developed this clever concept for Feel Good Home with the idea that eco-friendly attitudes and commonplace products can actually come together to make fancy home fittings. This delightful item is essentially a rubber sheath embellished with [intricately patterned perforations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/basket-sculpture). It embodies the grace yet simplicity of a modern sort of doily. Its pliable tubular shape can be stretched over the opening of [jars, bottles, wine glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artisanal-pour-bottles) and more to elongate their silhouettes and provide [ideal vessels for long stemmed flowers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/le-verre-bonbon). The Lace Vase comes in black and white and infuses everyday items with utter charm.
