Vintage - Bizen Ware Flower Vase

Bizen-yaki flower vase, a traditional Japanese ceramic art form is known for its natural, unglazed appearance. The earthy colors and rough texture are characteristic of Bizen ware, which is fired at high temperatures without using glaze, resulting in organic surface patterns. The subtle color variations and smoky patterns seen here are typical of the natural ash effects that occur during the wood-firing process. This type of vase is often used in Ikebana, the Japanese art of flower arrangement, and is highly valued for its rustic beauty and simplicity.
