Vintage Japanese Buddhist Altra Fittings "butsugu set"(SKU 25D-262)

Heisei-era glazed ceramic butsugu set in luminous blue‑green tones

This vintage Japanese Buddhist altar fittings set comprises four coordinated pieces: a flower vase (hanaire), candle holder (rōsoku-tate), incense holder, and offering cup. Each form is gracefully balanced, with soft curves and a stable foot designed for placement on a household butsudan or small memorial altar.

The ceramic bodies are finished in a striking two-tone glaze that shifts from deep navy at the base to fresh jade green at the rim, evoking water and sky. Gentle speckling and small kiln marks add character typical of 1990s Heisei-era production, giving the set a warm, lived-in presence while remaining elegant enough for contemporary interior display.

As part of our mission to preserve and share Japanese craftsmanship, we offer antiques that were made not just to be admired, but to be used. These pieces were crafted for everyday life, and we honor their purpose by ensuring they can continue to be enjoyed and lived with today.

We use professional studio lighting to highlight the natural character of the wood. As a result, the tone may appear slightly warmer than under natural daylight.

All vintage and antique items are sold as-is. Each piece may exhibit signs of age, including scratches, wear, or minor imperfections. These are not considered defects but natural evidence of the item’s authenticity and age.
