20th Century Shiro Kuramata Vase Mod. Ikebana - Big in Glass by '80s

About the Item

Shiro Kuramata was one of the most important Japanese designers of the 20th century. The charm of the works of Shiro Kuramata lies in the perfect combination of the traditional aesthetics of his culture with the principles of Western design and Postmodernism. In the palette of materials he uses, what counts are the intrinsic qualities, such as reflectivity, transparency, translucency, opacity or even tactility. The vase is a soliflower vase and the elegance of the decor is especially in the glass leaf that, according to the drawing of the designer, follows the shape of the natural flower that you will set on the vase. Very good condition, presence of the brandmark and name of the author. We strongly recommend a wooden box for shipping.
