Minimalist Japanese Ikebana Vase – Modernist Ceramic, 1980s

This elegant Japanese ikebana vase from the 1970s–80s is a striking example of modernist ceramic art from the late Shōwa period. Crafted from high-quality ceramic with a smooth, glossy white glaze, it features a bold organic form.

Dimensions: Height 11 cm, width 38 cm, depth 9 cm. In perfect vintage condition, unsigned.

The design is minimalist and asymmetrical, with a flowing, gently curved silhouette evoking natural movements—like rippling water or a bending stem.

Its wide, flat base rises into a subtle curve, while the elongated, narrow opening at the top is ideal for arranging a few carefully selected flowers or branches in the ikebana tradition. With its sculptural presence, this vase is not just functional but a standalone art piece. It adds a serene, poetic touch to any interior—whether modern, wabi-sabi, or Japanese-inspired.

Perfect as a centerpiece on a low table, open shelving, or a minimalist sideboard. Its tranquil aesthetic harmonizes beautifully with spaces that celebrate simplicity and natural materials. A refined choice for lovers of Japanese design and mid-century modern style.
