The Yugen vase has been designed to embrace this mysterious sense of beauty in its subtle curves, creating a delicate collar around floral arrangements. The presence of the Yugen vase is an invitation to seek for beauty through the most subtil details of life. The Yugen vase is part of the Kawayama collection. Made from the weaving mat that covers the tatamis, the Kawayama collection takes this iconic element of the Japanese culture to a new dimension. Traditionally flat and straight, the tatami suddenly expands in volume and curves, to become luxury homeware and contemporary furniture. Each object is made by hand, following a unique and meticulous process, which reveals the surprising structural properties and sublimates the vibrant effect of this woven material. The YUGEN vase comes in different colour combinations. It contains a glass cylinder that can be easily inserted or removed thanks to a simple device delivered with the vase. It also comes with a metal grid to make ikebana. See less
