    Abstract: A segmented vase adapted for use to display fresh cut or artificial floral arrangements. The segmented floral vase is formed from a plurality of vase segments that may be stacked or joined to form a vase having a desired height for holding a floral arrangement. In a preferred embodiment, the segments may be nested, when not in use, to reduce the space required for storage of the vase. The plurality of vase segments may be formed with a frusto-conical sidewall. The segments may include a base segment, at least one intermediate segment, and a top segment. The segments may be joined in one or more of a snap fit, an interference fit, a threaded connection, or a tab and slot arrangement.
