Kiyomizu Yaki Ikebana Vase by Fujihira Masafumi - Japan.

This refined ikebana vase is a masterwork by renowned ceramic artist Fujihira Masafumi, a specialist in Kyoto’s traditional Kiyomizu-yaki technique. Its robust organic form and subtle asymmetry embody the Japanese wabi-sabi aesthetic, where imperfection and natural beauty take center stage.

Dimensions: height 26,5 cm, diameter 11 cm. Weight: 3 kg. The ikebana is in perfect condition and signed at the bottom.

The glaze showcases a masterful interplay of deep earthy tones and natural crackle patterns, evoking weathered rock formations and moss-covered landscapes. This texture lends the piece a raw yet sophisticated finish, characteristic of Fujihira’s innovative approach to traditional ceramics.

In excellent condition; the vase comes in a wooden storage box (tomobako, not original) from our stock. A rare collector’s item, it functions equally well as an ikebana vessel or a standalone art piece for modern interiors.

Fujihira Masafumi is celebrated for pushing the boundaries of Kiyomizu-yaki with experimental textures while honoring Kyoto’s centuries-old techniques. This vase demonstrates his mastery of form and glaze, striking a perfect balance between tradition and innovation.

An exceptional piece for serious collectors of Japanese ceramics, blending historical significance with contemporary artistic expression.
