Vintage Japanese Ikebana / Decorative Vase (SKU 25D-332-2)
Minimalist Heisei-era stoneware flower vase with original signed kiri tomobako
This quietly striking Japanese vase embodies the refined simplicity of late 20th-century studio pottery. Formed in a soft ovoid silhouette with a gently tilted mouth, it is finished in a subdued, speckled olive-brown glaze that recalls unglazed bizenyaki and other rustic stonewares, inviting close appreciation of its texture and firing nuances.
Three small impressed sakura-style medallions punctuate the surface, adding a discreet decorative rhythm while maintaining the vessel’s modern, sculptural presence. Accompanied by its original signed wooden kiribako (paulownia storage box) inscribed for use as a flower vase, this piece is ideal for ikebana or as a standalone objet in a contemporary or wabi-sabi interior.

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.
