Vintage Japanese Iron Vase with “Three Monkeys” Hanging Chain (SKU 25S-802)

A Unique Iron Vase with Artistic Craftsmanship

This exquisite vintage Japanese iron vase, crafted during the Heisei era, beautifully blends sculptural artistry with functional design. The piece features a tapered, flared form with a subtly textured surface that evokes the natural beauty of aged metal and traditional Japanese wabi-sabi aesthetics. Its warm, rust-like patina reflects the passage of time and the refined skill of its maker.

Suspended from above, the vase is supported by an extraordinary chain of three monkeys, each figure cast in iron and grasping the next—an imaginative motif symbolizing connection, curiosity, and playfulness. The detailed sculpting of the monkeys creates a lively rhythm, transforming a practical hanging chain into a poetic work of art.

Whether used for ikebana (flower arranging) or displayed as a sculptural accent, this iron vase embodies the balance between strength and delicacy—a testament to Japanese craftsmanship and artistic thoughtfulness.
