A charming rounded ceramic vase from the renowned Japanese brand Tachikichi, featuring the elegant “Yamabudō” (Wild Grape) design. This piece was designed by Japanese decoupage artist Yukiko Nomura, whose delicate sensibility is beautifully expressed through the softly flowing vine motifs and gently layered leaves. What may appear at first glance to resemble maple leaves are in fact wild grape leaves, gracefully spreading across the smooth ivory surface. The composition combines warm autumnal tones — soft browns, muted purples, and subtle gold accents — creating a refined yet welcoming presence. The gold detailing catches the light gently, adding understated sophistication without overwhelming the natural aesthetic. The vase’s rounded, almost spherical form is one of its most attractive features. Its balanced proportions give it a sculptural quality, making it appealing both as a functional flower vase and as a standalone decorative object. The narrow 3 cm opening is ideal for minimalist ikebana arrangements or a few carefully selected stems. This piece blends Japanese decorative tradition with a design language that harmonizes beautifully with European interiors — particularly rustic, natural, or contemporary settings. A lovely example of Tachikichi craftsmanship, elegant yet approachable.
