Iro Temari Handcrafted Japanese Glass Bud Vase

Iro Temari Handcrafted Japanese Glass Bud Vase

A single stem becomes a vivid display in this palm sized glass bud vase, where ribbons and flecks of color appear suspended within a substantial rounded form. Light travels through the thick glass, revealing new layers of color from every angle.

The Iro Temari collection takes its name from traditional Japanese temari, decorative balls wrapped in brilliantly colored threads and intricate patterns. Each vase is handcrafted by Tsugaru Vidro artisans in Aomori, Japan, with a palette inspired by the changing colors of the seasons.

Inspired by Japanese Temari

Traditional Pattern Reimagined in Glass

Sweeping lines and scattered color recall the embroidered surfaces of Japanese temari balls. The compact spherical silhouette gives this traditional inspiration a fresh sculptural form suited to contemporary interiors.

Four Seasonal Designs
