Ikebana #1 Flower Vase
material: aluminium
size: 6x6x33cm
Traditional ikebana vases are often crafted from bamboo, a material tied to the philosophy of wabi-sabi, which celebrates simplicity, imperfection, and the transient nature of life.
At our Studio, we have reimagined this concept by creating aluminum vases, handcrafted to reflect a modern interpretation of these traditional ceremonial foundations. This approach bridges the timeless philosophy of ikebana on a contemporary way.
The art of ikebana and the Japanese tea ceremony are closely connected, as both practices embody the Japanese philosophy of harmony, simplicity, and respect for nature.
Both practices emphasize restraint and balance. Ikebana focuses on using minimal elements to highlight their essence, while the tea ceremony is performed with full awareness of the present moment. Both require focus and mindfulness, transforming everyday actions into meaningful rituals.
Its design is often minimalistic to emphasize the flowers' natural elegance.
