Vintage Japanese Bronze Flower Vase — Geometric Motif with Patina, Signed Tomobako (SKU: 25M-469-1)
An Echo of the Ancient: Where Time Rests in Bronze

This captivating vintage Japanese bronze vase embodies a timeless harmony between form, material, and meaning. Its bold architectural silhouette — featuring a square body seamlessly transitioning into cylindrical ends — feels as though it were unearthed from a distant temple or imagined from the blueprints of a forgotten civilization. A gentle patina blankets the surface, lending this piece an aged nobility, while the deeply etched spiral patterns speak in quiet riddles of continuity and inner strength.

Cast with reverence for Japanese metalwork traditions, the vase possesses a meditative weight and presence. It comes nestled in its original signed tomobako (wooden box), bearing the artisan’s name and calligraphy, offering both protection and prestige. Whether standing alone or holding a single ikebana stem, it becomes more than a vessel—it becomes a conversation between centuries.
