Tulips in Blue and White Chinese Porcelain

 

Tulips in blue and white Chinese porcelain are a wonderful combination. Tulips are even on sale this week at Publix. A great way to perk up your home in the gray days of winter.

Tulipieres, as the name indicates, were originally created to hold tulips. Tulipieres originated in 17th century London during the height of tulip mania.

I know we all love tulipieres. Also known as tulip bowls, tulipiere vessels are ornate ceramic pieces featuring several different spouts that hold blooms (traditionally tulips) individually. Tulipieres are self-arranging floral vessels. Dating to the early 17th century, tulipieres were designed to display the blooms of prized tulip bulbs.
