Japanese Antique Wall-Hanging Wooden Flower Vessel 1900s-1940s / Wabi Sabi

About the Item

This is an old wall-mounted wooden vase made in Japan. It was made in the early Showa period (1900s-1940s). It looks like a work of sculpture that makes the most of the natural wood. It is beautiful even without any decoration, and just a single branch or dried flower will change the impression of the space. It harmonizes beautifully not only in Japanese spaces but also in modern spaces, tightening the atmosphere. A tin holder is built into the interior, which can be filled with a small amount of water. The deep texture and quiet beauty that come from the long passage of time. This is the very spirit of Japanese “wabi-sabi. This piece transcends decoration and brings tranquility and blank space to your space. Weight: 500g. ______________________________________ Our Philosophy Objects always tell the truth. All I can do is just to face with them sincerely and give them deep affection as much as I can. There is no boundary of nationalities and of eras in beauty. But I think now is the time we choose 'Japanese style' and it will be the best way to remind us of what we are losing today and to question us about an essence of beauty again. I hope that you can touch the memories which the objects here have, feel and think of something invisible but exists undoubtedly.
