Here at Wholesale Glass Vases, we know most
of our web site visitors are florist and
designers and have more knowledge than us,
but we did want to share the Floral Decoration’s
history with our guests as it may be said
to be as old as civilization itself. The
remains of many ancient cultures provide
us with sufficient proof that people have
always been appreciative of the beauties
of nature; they show that flowers have been
a never-failing source of inspiration for
the adornment of architecture, and other
objects of daily use. On occasion we got
glimpses of a more intimate use of flowers
and see vases of cut blossoms decorating
the home or presented as offerings. There
are always clues to tell us that people
in the past brought flowers indoor to be
enjoyed just as we today fill vases with
flowers to beautify our rooms.
Sufficient evidence exists to show that
the ancient Egyptians decorate with cut
flowers placed in vases. Many wall painting
and bas-reliefs in Egyptian tombs tell us
what flowers vases looked like in those
days, with what they were filled, and when
and how they were used, Greek and Roman
writers tell us that flowers played an important
and significant role in the daily life of
the people.
It was the Chinese who first contributed
to the development of the art of flower
arranging. Contemplative, and with a characteristically
sensitive appreciation of nature. The Chinese learned to enjoy the quiet
beauty of a few perfect blossoms or a branch
of interesting shape. This refined taste
was passed on to Japan, along with Buddhism,
and developed into their highly symbolic
art.
The art of Japanese flower arrangement
was not a home art until the fifteenth century.
It reached its height in the eighteenth
century, by which time a number of rules
had been formalizes and much symbolism had
become associated with the entire art. Strictly
speaking, classic Japanese flower art depends
on an asymmetrical, purely linear design,
based on three main lines of related height
proportions. This dynamic and rhythmic art
lays a great deal more stress on silhouette,
or line, that it doses on color.
In direct contrast, European has
always been inclined to gather mixed bouquets.
Their use of floral colors and forms has
much diversity, and of course includes a
quantity of bulbous material not grown in
the orient.
It was natural that the influences
of Europe and Asia should meet in America;
countless books on flowers and their arrangement
were published or imported. Professional
horticulturalist, decorator, and florist
came to U.S. from Europe and Asia. They
gave lectures and demonstrations, and frequently
opened businesses and stayed on. Each had
influence on the trend in America today.
