Description

Vintage Japanese Hanging Ikebana Vase, 1920s (SKU 25D-181-5)

Slender sculptural ikebana vase with natural, bamboo-inspired form

This tall, narrow Japanese vase is hand-formed in the manner of a split bamboo stalk, its softly twisted body rising in warm gradations of earthy browns and charcoal firing marks. The mouth is sharply cut on a diagonal and finished in a rich reddish slip, framing the single opening for a stem in the wabi-sabi spirit of Nageire-style ikebana.

Presented with its original signed kiri tomobako storage box, this piece reflects the understated aesthetics of early 20th-century studio pottery, ideal for a tokonoma alcove or contemporary minimalist interior. Its organic silhouette and subtle wood-fired character make it a refined accent for tea ceremony, seasonal chabana, or as a stand-alone objet d’art.

  • Origin: Japan
  • Era: Heisei period (c. 2000s)
  • Material: High-fired stoneware ceramic

A quietly poetic Taishō-era vase that brings the elegance of traditional Japanese ikebana into any refined space.

 

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.
