Elevate your interior with the enchanting allure of this Bizen ware hanging vase. Designed to hang gracefully in spaces, it speaks of serenity and respect for nature.

Inspired from the kake hanaire vase, a traditional Japanese flower vase designed to be hung in ceremonial tea rooms, this type of vase embodies the tea ceremony's values of harmony and tranquility through its elegant and thoughtful placement.

Just before turning off the fire in the kiln, charcoal is sprinkled onto some parts of the surface creating a bluish shade on the earthy tones of the vase. Turn the vase around and find the color and shade that fits the flower you are arranging or the decor of where you are placing it.  

A beautiful item to decorate a room with seasonal flowers, it can be hung from a wall or column but can also be placed on a tabletop to adorn with its artistic fired patterns. 

Bizen ware is a traditional stoneware produced in the Imbe area of Okayama Prefecture. It is one of the oldest ceramics in Japan, and is made using the yakishime technique, in which pieces are fired at high temperatures without glaze to make them durable and water-resistant. 

Hozan Kiln is a long-established Bizen pottery kiln located in Imbe, Bizen City, the hometown of Bizen ware. For Bizen ware, there were six families that had been under the protection of the shogunate (government) since the 17th century. Hozan Kiln is known as one of them and continues to this day as the legitimate successor of Bizen ware.
