Imagine an intriguing object, made entirely of glass, with narrow openings all around it. No sophisticated mechanism, just a unique aesthetic and an enigmatic utility. A treasure from yesteryear that arouses curiosity. But what could its function be? That’s the question I asked myself when I discovered this object at my grandmother’s house. Her mischievous smile only fueled my desire to unravel the mystery.
A riddle shared with the world
When I asked my grandmother for a clue, she replied with a mysterious phrase: “Guess for yourself.” Determined, I dove into research on the Internet. On forums, the hypotheses flew: water filter, decorative element, candlestick… Each lead seemed credible, but none of them matched perfectly. Until an Internet user finally revealed the truth.
The key to the mystery: a tool for floral elegance
“It’s a support for floral arrangements,” revealed one Internet user. These glass supports, once very common in homes, were designed to hold flowers in place in a vase. They made it possible to create elegant and harmonious arrangements, a true art that our grandmothers mastered with care.
Once informed, I rediscovered this object from a new angle. Far from being trivial, it reflects an era where every detail counted to embellish everyday life.
