  • Antique Japanese Mixed Metals Copper & Silver Usubata Ikebana Flower Vase
    Located in Philadelphia, PA
    A fine antique Japanese flower vase. In hand-hammered copper (or possibly a thin-bodied bronze) with applied silver bands to rim, footrim, shaped edge, and with a lotus petal border at the joint of neck and body. Having the usubata form with a wide flared neck and mouth.

Simply a wonderful Japanese mixed metal vase...
