I was hesitant at first to buy it, as i like to have uneven number of flowers in the vases. I am glad i bought it.
As i like to have 7 roses in the arrangement, i just put 2 in one of middle sections
And also i surround a taller thin vase with this vase. There are a lot of ways how to use it.
The box was ideally packed I guess if with time some of glasses will break it would be possible to find similar size glasses, (though these ones have specific shape - curved top edges which hang on metal tubes)
