Know before you buy
Kutani-yaki is a traditional Japanese style of porcelain characterized by a vibrant palette of five specific colors—typically green, yellow, red, purple, and dark blue. This technique involves meticulous hand-painting, resulting in the rich, layered aesthetic seen on these vases.
Yes, these vases are made of glazed ceramic and are designed to be functional. They are perfectly safe to use with water and fresh floral arrangements.
The vases come in three distinct silhouettes: the round Lilac vase measures 18.4x16.9cm, the long Blue vase is 25x11cm, and the oval Dust Pink vase is 25x15cm. Please note that because they are handcrafted, slight variations in size may occur.

To preserve the metallic finish and hand-painted details, gently wipe the surface with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive sponges, harsh chemicals, or dishwashers, as these can damage the delicate glaze.
Each piece is individually handcrafted, meaning there may be subtle variations in the brushwork and color application. These unique characteristics are a hallmark of authentic Kutaniyaki artistry and ensure that every vase is one-of-a-kind.
