not nuts about the banana bud vase

As you know, we normally jump up and down for any of Jonathan Adler‘s creations, but we have to admit that his new banana bud vase is giving us pause. It’s definitely cheeky and fun, but for nearly $50? Even with all the potential phallic jokes, we’re just not buying it. It’s the kind of thing you can imagine unwrapping for your birthday and going: “Oh, look, a banana bud vase. Just what I’ve always wanted!” What about you? Would you go ape for this vase or slip it under the rug?




No… the black one reminds me of a rotten banana, and the white one is bland. And the overall idea just doesn’t appeal to me.
But I do know a couple of folks who would just love it. : )
I think its dumb.
No – horrid.
It looks like something you could buy from Archie McPhee.
Pass.
oh my, i was thinking exactly the same thing when i saw this! i normally love anything and everything from JA, but this just isn’t doing it for me. i think they’re trying to come up with cheap gifties, which is admirable…but no. we have no bananas today.
well, i don’t love it but it bothers me much less than the gun vases that were so popular a while back.
I’d trade it in for one of his other vases, which I love!
