The earliest known use of a vase for holding flowers is seen in Ancient Egypt, although these vases were basic in design and shape. During the Ancient Greek and Roman times vases became more decorative, and some extraordinary examples were created. Silver vases became popular during the 19th Century, associated with luxury and wealth, and were considered highly fashionable items for the homes of the European social elite. 20th Century Art Nouveau, Arts and Crafts and Art Deco examples are highly sought after.
