About the Item

Japanese vessel with rounded body and slender neck, the form recalls both sake bottles and flower vases, embodying the versatile aesthetics of Japanese decorative arts. The surface is finished with a deep reddish-brown patina, enhanced by delicate inlaid floral motifs, creating a rich and timeless presence. Originally crafted with exceptional attention to detail, this piece today resonates as a sculptural object that bridges function and art. It can be appreciated as a decorative vessel in its own right, or incorporated into a modern interior as an accent with historical depth and wabi-sabi allure.
