I found this at my grandmother’s house: made entirely of glass with narrowed openings all around the perimeter. What is it?

The key to the mystery: a tool for floral elegance :

“It’s a support for floral arrangements,” revealed one Internet user. These glass supports, once very common in homes, were designed to hold flowers in place in a vase. They made it possible to create elegant and harmonious arrangements, a true art that our grandmothers mastered with care.

Once informed, I rediscovered this object from a new angle. Far from being trivial, it reflects an era where every detail counted to embellish everyday life.

Rediscovering the treasures of the past.
