Japanese Bamboo Flower Vase – Thatched Roof Style Sculptural Ikebana Vessel – Showa Period Description A unique Japanese bamboo flower vase handcrafted in the form of a traditional thatched roof structure. This sculptural piece is made from finely bundled natural bamboo branches, carefully bound with bamboo ties. Its architectural silhouette resembles a small rural hut or thatched roof, evoking a quiet, rustic atmosphere deeply connected to Japanese folk aesthetics. The opening on the front allows flowers or branches to be arranged in an ikebana style, while the piece itself functions beautifully as a decorative object even without flowers. The surface shows natural variations, knots, and irregularities inherent to bamboo, which enhance its organic charm. Flowers shown in the photos are for display purposes only and are not included.
