A Charming Little Vase for Displaying Wildflowers Found While Wandering

Have you ever noticed the flowers at your feet while walking or on your way home? Those "nameless flowers" blooming along the roadside somehow bring peace to your heart... The flower vase "Michikusa" was designed to let you feel that same tranquility indoors.

A small break for those with busy daily lives. Try decorating your desk, kitchen, or washstand with small roadside flowers and grasses.

It's a set of a round, cute, transparent glass base that blends into any atmosphere and a kenzan (flower frog).

Casual Flower Arranging with Barium Glass That Emits a Clear Brilliance

The glass used in the "Michikusa" vase has higher transparency, refractive index, and reflectivity than ordinary window glass, giving it a clearer beauty. As a result, you can enjoy different characteristics when it's filled with water versus when it's empty.

The shimmer of water reflected in the transparent glass harmonizes with the vibrant color of the kenzan, adding a fresh accent to your space.

Normally, lead oxide is added to increase transparency and refractive index, but it's not used in barium glass. It's been adopted as a material that also fulfills environmental considerations.

The Beauty is Supported by the Glassmaker's Skill

What actually supports the beauty of the design-rich "Michikusa" vase is the craftsman's skill. The glass is entirely handmade by craftsmen in a glass factory in Tokyo. The key point is the process of pouring into a mold and creating a smooth surface. This is actually a process that requires great technical skill, and this beauty can only be achieved through the excellent technique of the craftsmen. It's made by skilled glass craftsmen who have become rare nowadays, making it very precious.

The "Michikusa" vase conveys the Japanese culture of "kenzan," the joy of decorating your room, and the beauty of a casual single flower.

Create Your Own Combination of Flowers and Color Variations

The color variations make it fun to consider which flowers to combine with which color. Even the same flowers will show different expressions depending on the "Michikusa" variation.

You might unexpectedly find a combination that's uniquely yours. "Michikusa," with its simple yet sophisticated design and diverse color variations, is also lovely to choose based on the image of the person you're giving it to.

It's an item often selected as a gift for special days.
