Vases

I am currently on the lookout for a vase, I am moving to London in September so I am considering how to make myself feel at home within the student accommodation. 

My ideal purchase would be something rather expensive and luxurious, however as stated I am a student so I cannot spend an amount worthy of high quality jewellery on a item meant to simply hold flowers. 

I have some pointers that I want the vase to withhold: tall enough to enable a long stem, either wooden or ceramic in natural colours: dark wood or beiges, natural greens, soft grey for ceramic, matte or lacquered. No lip or medium sized lip over the edge for the stem to lean on and the petals/fluffy flower heads to overhang. 

The type of flower I am considering to fit the vase is to be long stemmed with small flowers. Gypsophila ( also known as baby breath) is an ideal accompaniment. Or something sparser made up of a few stems with slimline petals and leaves.
