Japanese Buddhist Altar Fitting Flower Vase

This is a heavy brass flower vase, hanatate, for Buddhist altars. It is a vessel for Sakaki leaves or Shashagi leaves. The meaning of offering sakaki tree leaves is that we believe the gods living in the sakaki tree will protect the grave and the soul. It is also common to offer a range of seasonal and symbolic flowers in front of the altar. This particular vase has beautiful designs etched into each side (flowers and animals).
