I found this white vase with red trailing decoration on ebay. I don't know if it's an "official" hyacinth vase (I suspect it's not) but I am using it as a hyacinth vase. It's rather small so only suitable for smaller hyacinth bulbs. I used a hyacinth bulb from Sainsbury's this year. They do a pack of 12 bulbs, no specified varieties and not prepared for forcing.
in full bloom end of December

a few days before that

the vase is 14 cm tall, trailing hand-applied and uneven - but I love that




vase from the top, 6.5 cm across, delightfully handmade

base with snapped off pontil mark (ignore the number, that's for my records)
