I have lost many great vases through the years because of many different things. One is my child. I can’t blame her, though I guess I could blame myself for not realizing that anything that sparkles is going to be something she would want to explore at a younger age. I have lost some to my pets, as they go wherever they please, and they often rub against things. If those things are not secured, they are going to hit the ground. Then, of course, I have my own problems with being clumsy that I have to deal with. I do have many glass items at home, but I also have some plastic vases too.
