Heishi Vase - Large

Oji Masanori for Jicon

• Introduction

  I am a Large Heishi Vase. Some may think I'm just another empty vessel sitting around waiting for a jolt of life and inspiration, but it is the emptiness within that makes me useful. 

   

• Curator's Notes 

  The large size of this vase makes it the perfect table or counter focal point. We love the vast white surface and large opening as it is ideal for a wide array of arrangements like an unruly wild bouquet or for a single branch to climb out of the opening in a poetic way. It is actually the simplicity of this creamy porcelain vase that makes it a showstopper because sometimes you don't want the vase to be the loud element in order for the flowers to shine.
