Introducing Papier x Octaevo: the vase for paper people

Papier and Barcelona-based design studio Octaevo have similar philosophies – creating thoughtful designs that bring a little magic to the everyday. Octaevo takes inspiration from the Mediterranean, creating meaningful objects that transform the colours, philosophy and mythology of the Med into vibrant and visionary pieces.

We've teamed up with the studio to bring you two Papier x Octaevo vases. With shapely silhouettes inspired by ancient ceramics, the designs make timeless treasures for paper people. They're made from special water-proof paper and printed with two exclusive Papier patterns dreamt up by our in-house designers. Choose from two prints – Beach Daisy and Sunrise – and get ready to transform your desk in an instant.

Here’s a simple guide to using your vase.


Step one: Choose your Papier print. For the hues of a dawn sky, choose Sunrise. If you prefer fun and uplifting florals, Beach Daisy should be your pick. Place your order and we'll send it on its way.

Step two: Once your parcel arrives, it’s time to make your desk bloom. Your vase will come flat packed – open it by gently pushing in the edges.

Step three: If you want to use your vase for flowers, fill a glass halfway with water. If you're housing long paintbrushes, dried blooms or anything else, no water is needed. The vase is made from water-resistant paper so if it does get wet, just give it a little time to dry.

Step four: Place the paper vase over your glass.

Step five: Fill with flowers (or anything you like) and place somewhere you’ll see it every day, such as your desk, bedside table or windowsill.
