Item Description A sculptural bronze vase titled "Hassho" (Origin/Genesis) by Nezaya Tadamidori. The deep blue-green surface, reminiscent of verdigris patina, is accented with gold-toned highlights along the rim and the undulating face on one side. Fine engraved lines run vertically across the front. The tapering, panel-like form makes a strong impression when viewed from the front, while the silhouette shifts character when seen from the side. It can be enjoyed both as an ikebana flower vessel and as a standalone sculptural work. The opening is a narrow rounded rectangle, and the base is recessed by one step. The underside bears a small diamond-shaped stamp and a square seal below it. A wooden box is included; the box carries an inscription with the title and artist's name, along with a red seal.
