This is a vintage Japanese bronze flower vase inspired by the form of traditional Japanese ceramic storage jars.
The vase features a tall, rounded body that gradually narrows toward a small circular opening. Thick, flowing relief decorations extend from the shoulder, beautifully recreating the appearance of ceramic glaze melting and dripping down the surface during firing.
Crafted from bronze, the vase displays a rich, naturally aged patina in dark copper-red and brown tones, with subtle green oxidation. Fine horizontal ridges and irregular raised drip patterns create a distinctive sculptural texture, combining the rustic beauty of traditional Japanese pottery with the craftsmanship of Japanese metalwork.
With its substantial weight of approximately 2.7 kg, this vase has a strong sculptural presence. It is an attractive piece for Japanese art collections, ikebana arrangements, or decorative interior display.
