Vintage Japanese Kabin Flower Vase, Takaoka Doki - 1990s Heisei Era (25D-332-3)

Vintage Japanese Vase, Heisei Era (SKU 25D-332-3)

Heisei-era bronze vase with deep green patina and chrysanthemum crest, with original tomobako box

This elegant vintage Japanese vase is cast in bronze and finished with a richly mottled green and black patina that recalls malachite stone. The tall, tapering neck rises from a rounded body in classic kabin form, creating a refined silhouette that suits both single seasonal branches and sculptural display on its own.

To the front, a small gilt chrysanthemum crest (kiku mon) provides a dignified accent, catching the light against the dark ground. The vase is accompanied by its signed wooden tomobako storage box, inscribed in ink, underscoring its quality as a collectible piece from late 20th-century Japan.
