Item Description
Tachikichi (橘吉) "Asuka" Ceramic Flower Vase — Deep Indigo Gradation

A graceful flower vase from Tachikichi's "Asuka" series, dressed in a captivating gradation glaze that shifts from clear sky blue at the shoulder to a rich, velvety midnight indigo at the base. The color transition is striking and serene — evoking the clarity of a still night sky. The rounded, organic form is quietly sculptural: wide-bellied with a narrow neck opening, making it ideal as a single-stem vase. Compact enough for a tokonoma alcove, an entryway shelf, or a side table without demanding space. A refined example of Tachikichi's signature approach — functional beauty translated into everyday ceramics.

Artist Profile
Tachikichi (橘吉 / Tachikichi), founded 1752, Kyoto
Established in 1752 in Shijo-Tominokoji, Kyoto, under the original trade name "Tachibana-ya Kichibei," Tachikichi is one of Japan's most storied ceramics houses with over 270 years of history. Renamed "Tachikichi" by the 8th proprietor in 1894, the company grew to become the foremost retailer of fine Japanese tableware and decorative ceramics, at its peak serving 300,000 registered members nationwide. Operating from a base in Kyoto — the spiritual home of tea culture and refined vessel traditions — Tachikichi developed an original model of commissioning purpose-designed ceramics directly from kilns across Japan, elevating the retailer's role from seller to creative originator. The brand expanded internationally, opening stores in Italy and across 16 overseas locations. Today Tachikichi continues to operate from Kyoto, championing seasonal design and the joy of ceramics in everyday life. Products bearing the "橘吉" backstamp represent the brand's traditional lineage and gifting heritage.
