These charming vases by Sally Meekins are going to be just right for the blue-and-white theme of the Drawing Room. They have a real sense of personality to them and are amazingly small and delicate in real life.

The vases are perfect for adding an Arts and Crafts flavour to furniture. Below you can see them displayed on the family’s ornate organ, alongside Sally Meekin’s blue-and-white cats and, further down, Robert Olszewski’s vase of flowers and other goodies from the collection.
