​Bronze Hanamizuji Water Pourer, 1970s, Japan

An elegant Japanese hanamizuji water pourer from the 1970s, featuring a refined, low-profile shape and a beautiful warm bronze patina.

Dimensions: H 6.5 × W 18 × D 12 cm.

Crafted from karakane, a traditional Japanese bronze alloy, with subtle shades of copper brown and dark bronze.

The flattened, rounded body is complemented by a long, gracefully curved spout and a small twist-lock lid. Traditionally used to add water with precision to ikebana arrangements and flower vases, but also suitable for tending bonsai.

In lovely vintage condition.

An exceptionally graceful object that brings together Japanese simplicity and functionality. Its elegant form also makes it a beautiful decorative accent in a contemporary interior.
