A pink porcelain potpourri vase with a pierced top, rose petals and two candle arms

One porcelain vase held scented petals and two candles

The pierced top of this Sèvres potpourri vase let the scent of dried petals drift into the room. Two candle sockets on its sides also turned the vase into a small candelabra.

Flowers inside, candlelight on both sides: the vase brought its own glow.
