A statement piece can take a space from good to great, but oftentimes those items come with a statement price tag. That’s why I love this new vase from IKEA. It’s not only a conversation-starter with its bold color and cool lines, but it’s also a budget-saver at just $15. It’s called the DOFTBRÄKEN, and it will add a burst of personality to any space you put it in.

What Is the IKEA DOFTBRÄKEN Vase?

The DOFTBRÄKEN is a ceramic vase that features squiggle-shaped handles on both sides and is glazed in an electric blue, which IKEA deemed its Color of the Year for 2025. It stands at just under a foot tall and is great for displaying sprays of flowers and greenery at the center of the dining room table, but it’s just as fun to look at on its own when you place it on a mantel or shelf. 

Why I Love It

It’s beautiful standing solo, but because it’s so bright and bold the DOFTBRÄKEN also pairs so well with IKEA’s other modern and brightly colored vases like the KÄLLARHALS and the PÄRLHÄGG (both of which come in rich, warm colors).

“Beautiful color, very sturdy, and artsy,” one IKEA shopper wrote about the DOFTBRÄKEN in their review. Exactly what I was looking for.”

And another reviewer wrote the following: “The design is simple curves but makes a bold statement. I have it paired with contemporary glass vases that I also purchased at IKEA. It is exactly what I needed to balance out the other vases on the fireplace mantel. A bold pop of color!”

The DOFTBRÄKEN looks similar to the Ferm Living Verso Table Vase from Lulu and Georgia, which retails for $138. This vase also comes in an electric blue color (as well as black and cream) and features similar squiggle handles to the IKEA version.

But you can get the upscale Matisse-inspired look for so much less when you go with the IKEA DOFTBRÄKEN. Grab it now to give your space an instant pop of personality.
