Vintage Japanese Brushed Lacquer Wooden Flower Vase w/ Box
This is a vintage Japanese flower vase, or kabin traditional used for ikebana flower arrangements. This piece is senmaki, a type of woodcraft from the Hida-Takayama area in Gifu Prefecture that features tiny long shavings of wood wound around a base as a veneer to create the unique swirl look. It is brushed with clear lacquer to better highlight the design. It is short and rounded with a copper metal insert to protect the wood from water damage. It comes with a matching flat round stand. The original box is also included.
This was purchased at the famous Osu Antique Market in Nagoya
