Use the actual stems
Equal stem counts do not always occupy equal space. Assemble a sample group and observe its position around the opening. Do not treat outside diameter as internal clearance; ask explicitly for the measurement you need. Record the stems’ natural angle and intended spread, which an overhead photograph alone may not explain.
Check the visible binding point
In clear glass, ties and supports can become part of the composition. Compare where they sit in a Karanfillik vessel and a Cladio Vase. Use materials suitable for the application and assess whether they could mark the surface. A dense bouquet in a reference image will look different if recreated with fewer stems.
Move the trial to its final level
An arrangement on a florist’s workbench may read differently on a dining table or console. View it from the front and side at the intended height. Check outward-reaching stems against neighbouring objects and examine how the stems cross inside the vessel. Evaluate stability with the real materials rather than estimating a load capacity from a photograph.
Include the trial in your enquiry
Send model, quantity, the required opening measurement and an image of the intended arrangement. Confirm suitability separately if water will be used. UK buyers can discuss these product questions with Glassy in İzmir before ordering. Floral supports and the finished arrangement still need assessment by the professional responsible for assembling them.
Final check
- Is the requested measurement internal clearance or outside diameter?
- How does the binding point look through the glass?
- Has the trial been viewed on the intended surface?
