Tulipiere

A tulipiere is a hand-made pottery which was made specifically to grow tulips. They are constructed to accommodate one bulb per spout and the larger common base is used to store water. They were not designed as vases for a cut bloom, though they could also be used for this. Primarily they were popular in the 17th century when, besides tulip, other bulb flowers (e.g. hyacinth, crocus) were luxury items in Europe. That’s why they were also suitable for indicate their owner’s wealth.

It is a medium dark shade, so it can be used in larger quantities. It fits well for kitchens, luxurious living rooms or even masculine interiors as a pop of color. As every red hue, this has invigorating, energizing effect, so it should be carefully used in bedrooms and children’s rooms. Ask for help of an interior designer for making the color of the year 2023 appear in your home in style.
