The Drop Shape Suruga Bamboo Basketry Japanese Flower Vase is meticulously handwoven from thin bamboo strips, creating an elegant raindrop silhouette. Perfect for showcasing round bouquets reminiscent of a summer cloud, this vase pairs exceptionally well with hydrangeas.
The vase's dark brown hue and the delicate lightness of the bamboo basketry add a chic and stylish flair to summer floral arrangements. Choose a bouquet that complements the vase's volume, creating a balanced and aesthetically pleasing presentation.

This vase truly shines when paired with the lively, tall blooms of spring or the elegant stature of lilies. It's a vase that celebrates the beauty of spring, perfectly complementing the natural grace of larger, eye-catching blooms. An ideal piece for a mantel or a table in your entrance.

Lightweight flowers are recommended to match the delicate frame of the bamboo. Baby's breath and scabiosas are also excellent choices, enhancing this summer delight with their airy grace.

The warm, earthy hues of the Sunlight Shigaraki Ware Long Flower Vase make it perfect for showcasing long branches adorned with verdant sprigs. Its simple design allows it to hold both traditional and modern floral arrangements, while its natural vibe fits effortlessly into any living or dining space.

Try adding branches that drape naturally, such as Japanese clethra or enkianthus, to create a contrast between the burnished sienna tones and vibrant green, reminiscent of a lush tree. The substantial heft of the vase can accommodate fairly large branches and blooms, allowing for a full display of greenery or an expansive bouquet.

The Hozan Kiln Sangiri Bizen Ware Eared Flower Vase is perfect for cradling the thick stems of summer sunflowers which really do embody the spirit of summer with their bright, bold colors! They have this unique ability to light up any space with their cheerful presence.

The rich, earthy hues of the vase not only amplify the vivid colors of the sunflowers but also impart a mature elegance to their cheerful display. Cutting the stems at different lengths can help you arrange them more easily, allowing for a more varied and dynamic display.

It is essential to note that sunflowers can rapidly sully the water in a vase. The purifying attributes of Bizen ware are particularly beneficial for these summer favorites, aiding in maintaining the freshness of the water and prolonging the vitality of the flowers.

For a cool and clear look on a hot summer day, glass is the ultimate choice. The Hirota Taisho Roman Tokusa Edo Glass Single Flower Vase, with its dainty size, is perfect for adding a touch of elegance to a small indoor table or a wooden patio setting during summer gatherings. The frosted vertical lines of the vase play beautifully with light, creating a mesmerizing effect.

Arrange wildflowers and greenery from your yard or planter. Thin stems, delicate petals, and feathery leaves harmonize with the lightness of the glass, adding a refreshing airiness to any tabletop. This beautifully crafted vase not only serves as a decorative piece but also brings a breath of fresh summer air to your home.

Transform your table or alcove with the openness of a window using this modern, artful vase. Featuring a small, square ash wood base, it is complemented by a large, circular aluminum frame in a cool metallic silver.

The solid aluminum lines seamlessly blend with the sturdy ash wood, creating a beautifully crafted silhouette. Despite its simple shape, this piece highlights the elegance of the natural elements it holds.

A truly unique combination, this vase exemplifies the harmony of simplicity and sophistication. When selecting the right foliage for this item, consider minimalism and height. We set a branch of vibrant green Japanese maple, whose low-lying leaves beautifully match the natural texture of the wood.

Additionally, the graceful curve of tall cattail grass can artfully adorn the metal frame. The long, arching stems of the cattail grass add an aesthetic softness to the perfectly round frame.

For those who adore ikebana or are just beginning to explore this art, Gingado’s ikebana vases are ideal. Our latest model, the Aluminum Half Moon Ikebana Flower Vase, features a charming design reminiscent of a Japanese garden.

The included kenzan, a Japanese flower frog, makes ikebana accessible and enjoyable even for newcomers. The ripples on the smooth, matte aluminum surface elevate the freshness of the flowers, adding a serene touch. Place the vase on your favorite stand or cloth to perfectly suit your space.

For our arrangement, we placed a soft, round bloom of purple scabiosa on the kenzan, complemented by the wild and vibrant yellow gloriosa flower. Large, glossy greenery adds life and freshness to the minimalist vase.

An agapanthus bloom or a tropical anthurium would create a dramatic and eye-catching display, their voluminous blooms pairing beautifully with the clean lines of the aluminum vase. For this ikebana vase, which carries a modern and sleek aesthetic, both floral suggestions would indeed look stunning.

Summers in Japan, famously hot and humid, inspire a shift in household items and decor to foster a refreshing atmosphere. Why not give your space a makeover with a Japanese vase for the coming season?

Whether featuring the airy lightness of bamboo or the earthy coolness of stoneware, paired with florals in soothing and vibrant hues, it is bound to become your new favorite decorative piece.
