Know before you buy
This vase is specifically designed for 'ichirin-zashi,' or single-stem arrangements. It works best with a single long-stemmed flower, a delicate branch, or a small sprig of greenery.
While the porcelain is durable, the vase is relatively lightweight and compact. It is best suited for lighter floral stems or foliage that won't cause the piece to tip over.
To preserve the hand-painted details and the vibrant red finish, hand wash the vase gently with mild soap and warm water. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals that could scratch or dull the surface.
Yes, the vase is packaged in a dedicated gift box, making it a convenient and thoughtful choice for housewarmings, birthdays, or traditional celebrations.
This design by Fukuda Shoryu reflects the Japanese concept of 'mono no aware,' or the pathos of things. It captures the fleeting beauty of cherry blossoms against the permanence of Mt. Fuji, symbolizing the balance between change and stability.
