Kakusyu Yamanaka Lacquerware Single-Flower Vase

The word "Kakusyu" in Japanese means the neck of a crane. As you can see, the slender curvatures of the neck of the vase give you the feel of a crane gracefully stretching its neck.   

The gradual color change from black to red with an emphasis on black, gives this vase of modern look. The delicately coated lacquer shines elegantly from all angles and makes the vase look as though it was made out of glass. 

A removable glass tube is inserted to make it easy to set a flower in the vase. The bottom of the vase is padded with a thin felt fabric so as not to scratch tables and leave water rings on surfaces.

Set this vase along side other lacquerware to create a chic and modern table setting with a taste of Japanese craftsmanship.
