Sangiri Hanging Flower Vase

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 by the kake hanaire, 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. 

Hozan Kiln

Hozan Kiln is a long-established Bizen ware kiln. Located in Imbe, Bizen City, the hometown of Bizen ware, Hozan Kiln is directly descended from the Six Families of Bizen ware potters. For centuries, it has continuously produced masterpieces of tea ceremony utensils, sake cups, and art pieces. The oldest-known piece to bear the fan-shaped ceramic stamp, or brand mark, the kiln still uses today is a large jar dating to the 16th century.

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.

Bizen ware is called "the art of clay and fire" for the exquisite colors and patterns produced by the kiln's flames, and is characterized by its minimalist, wabi sabi design.
