AGATE IKEBANA FLOWER VASE


Give your best blooms a worthy foundation with an agate Ikebana vase. Created for the Japanese art of flower arranging, with its emphasis on symmetry and balance, this vase features a pronged frog to gracefully hold stems upright nestled in a slice of gorgeously polished Brazilian agate. The water reservoir keeps blossoms and stems fresh for an arrangement that is in perfect harmony with nature. In your choice of pink, blue or purple, all with their organic stone edges, these unique vases are a naturally special gift. Handcrafted in Beaverton, Oregon.

Comments about AGATE IKEBANA FLOWER VASE:

Received this as a gift, and couldn't be more pleased with it. I only need to buy or cut a couple of flowers, cut some iris leaves, and in two minutes I've got a beautiful arrangement that friends ooh and ah over. AND the flowers last so long! Lovin' it.

Comments about AGATE IKEBANA FLOWER VASE:

This is a Christmas gift for my mother-in-law. Not sure what her response will be to the gift but everyone else who has seen it wants one too. The agate is extremely beautiful and the pattern is very unique. It is larger than I expected (judging from the picture) which is great. The description of the size is accurate--about 7" around. Still might keep it for myself and find something else for the mother-in-law.

Comments about AGATE IKEBANA FLOWER VASE:

I chose the blue color and it is lovely. The actual hole for the flowers is smaller than I expected (a little less than an inch in diameter), but I think that's just fine. It's going to be a great gift for my 70 year old mother-in-law who loves arranging flowers. Sophisticated, lovely and original at a great price point.

Comments about AGATE IKEBANA FLOWER VASE:

I used several for thick stemmed flowers on the dinner table as it made a great height to talk over. I later planted a small section of bamboo in one of them that had a little more water capacity than the others. I also ordered the coasters that pick up the colors.
