Handmade Ikebana Container - Pyramid - 0824-094

This piece is beautiful with a blend of modern and Asian influences. Works really well with flower arrangement as a vase. Flowers look like a work of art in the vase (using a floral frog). I love it.

In my opinion, it is designed for asymmetrical arrangements. It is not heavy, but it is heavy enough to extend materials in an unbalanced way as for Ikebana. It is very small, allowing an intimate arrangement. Very pleased!

We love the vase. Thomas was a lot of fun to work with. He offered valuable advice and was patient with our questions.

I’m always on the lookout for interesting Ikebana containers and this one fits the bill! I love the shape, color, and glaze, and it arrived quickly. Highly recommended!

Fantastic and friendly Thomas and Kathy both and the pottery pieces have been wonderful additions to my life!!! I use the food ware most days and ikebana containers as well! The Tea ware has been amazing from the tea bowls to the originally ikebana, that I chose to use as standing “tea boat “ in my Japanese Tearoom and named “Kazekusa”, Grasses in the Wind from the beautiful design! The the person with the “Too Deep” vase, perhaps use stones or perhaps for Sogetsu style? Or Chabana? So many ways to be innovative with these pieces!!!

The quality is superb! Kathy and Thomas showed us their facility, everything is handmade there. I love using their Ikebana vases for my flower arrangement. I couldn't be happier with my purchase!

Beautiful glazes, nice size, except the bowl is too deep for my taste. I am used to bowls in this style being about half as deep. Most KENZAN in the ikenobo school in vases of this circumference are much more shallow and the circumference of the bowl itself is too big. I am a fairly inexperienced (7 year) arranger. It could be that with time I will find a use for it. Right now, however, it is awkward.

I loved using this container. It has a delicacy to it and yet offers so many options. I also was very pleased with the service from Arakawa, from start to finish. The ordering process is very clear, they communicate in a timely way, delivery was prompt and everything was packaged with great care.

This container looks solid and profound with quality. This can hold heavy braches in many ways. Can’t wait to try many more arrangement with different materials!

Very happy to have this one which is my third purchase

As a vase, it is a great design which gives an arranger a unique opportunty to be adventurous being away from conventional approach. I also love the color (deep shinny blue) and aurora-like glaze of mixture of blue and light gray with purple hint which is beautiful.

I love the color and the swish glaze! This Suiban is the one you would like to have for Ikebana study. I would recommend this one over typical black/white Suiban.

I was looking for a container for a place to display the arrangement above eye level. It has great base color and the glaze pattern. It is easy to hang on the wall using a regular hook for a frame. Arakawa has a wonderful collection of Ikebana containers with great design and quality. So happy to find them in the U.S.!

Elegant look, happy to have it

Pefect size and lovely! Our venerale's first arrangement with this container. photo download: https://1drv.ms/u/s!ApwMtioHDxD6hLpJJ-5i1WHM7m-ksg

I just started an ikebana class and the teacher highly recommended Arakawa pottery place for a good vase. I’m so delighted to get two artistically crafted and high quality ikebana vases and a cute bud vase. As Thomas says at the studio, a good vase to ikebana is like a good frame to a picture, it enhances the final presentation. Thomas and Kathy’s pottery work certainly help fulfill that.

I’ll have to defer to the user after she receives the gift at the end of June

We purchased a couple of vases for our mother for Mother’s Day. She recently started ikebana classes and her arrangements look beautiful in your vases. Shipping was quick and everything was packed nicely. Received several compliments and will definitely be ordering more as gifts. Thank you!

I ordered these as Mother’s Day gifts for my daughters-in-law, and they were delighted! Each one commented on the beautiful shape, color and texture of the container. I was pleased that the containers arrived promptly, and that they were packaged securely. Thank you!
