Vintage Japanese Ikebana Flower Vase

This is a Japanese vintage flower vase or kabin. This wide-mouth vase in a textured matte, speckled teal blue has a permanent inner piece that makes it easier for more sparse arrangements to stand. There are three openings in the inner piece, as well as plenty of space at the center to place a spiked weight (kenzan) for additional flowers.
