Michael Aram White Orchid Bud Vase

The White Orchid Bud Vase is the sculptural object that earns its place on any surface before you've even put a flower in it. Cast in hand-textured stainless steel with a nickelplate finish, it rises 7 inches with the precise, layered petal structure of an orchid in full bloom rendered at a scale that works equally on a side table, a bathroom counter, a desk, or a dining centrepiece. The 3.5" opening is sized for a single stem — a garden rose, a tulip, a ranunculus, a real orchid — or a small tight arrangement that doesn't compete with the object itself.

The White Orchid Collection translates Michael Aram's signature orchid motif into white nickelplate, which shifts the character of the piece entirely from its black counterpart. Where Black Orchid reads as powerful and sensual, the white version is purer — lighter in presence, more closely allied with the fragility and precision of the actual flower. Each piece is cast individually in his New Delhi workshop, ground, buffed, and polished by hand. The slight variations in surface texture between pieces are the signature of that process, not a flaw.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between the White Orchid Bud Vase and the Black Orchid pieces?
Same sculptural casting, different finish character. White nickelplate reads as pure, light, and delicate — evoking the actual flower. Black nickelplate is more sensual and dramatic. They live well together as a pair.

Is it dishwasher safe?
No. Wipe with a soft damp cloth. Do not soak, use abrasive cleaners, or place in the dishwasher or microwave.

What size stems fit the opening?
The 3.5" opening suits a single long-stemmed rose, tulip, ranunculus, or orchid, or a small tight arrangement of shorter-stemmed flowers.

Does it come as part of a collection?
Yes — the White Orchid Collection includes vases in small, medium, and large sizes, plus frames, bath accessories, and sculptural objects in the same white nickelplate finish.
