The art of ikebana - the gentle and mindful arrangement of flowers in sculptural vases - is an integral part of Japanese culture and therefore the obvious source of inspiration for this vase. A combination of mouth-blown glass and the curved design of designer Kazushige Miyake - the MIYABI glass vase. Both items are characterized by thick, high-quality glass walls, which ensures stability. Branches and flowers can be arranged in a minimalist way. The stainless steel grid can be supplemented with Floral Foam or flower spikes so that the branches can be placed in the vase.
Designer: Kazushige Miyake
About
Japanese designer Kazushige Miyake (b. 1973) graduated from Tama Art University in Tokyo with a specialization in design. He then began his career as a product designer in Great Britain before returning to Japan in 1999.
In 2005, he founded his own design studio. Today, Miyake Design is synonymous with clear and functional product design, from lounge chairs to suitcases, always with the discerning consumer in mind. Miyake favors simplicity and straightforwardness in his designs, and believes that every object has its own form.
This form is not limited to its physical presence, but also includes the aura or atmosphere that surrounds the object and its effect on those who use it.
Kazushige Miyake has received a number of prestigious design awards, including the iF Design Award, the Red Dot Design Award and the Good Design Award. Today, he is a member of the evaluation committees for both the Good Design Award and the iF Design Award.
blomus has a wide range of mouth-blown glass products. Each glass is unique and may have small air bubbles as well as differences in shape and weight. Extreme temperature fluctuations should be avoided, as glassware can react sensitively to sudden changes in temperature. Clean the glassware with a mild detergent and warm water to avoid scratches. If our glass products are dishwasher-safe, we recommend polishing them afterwards with a soft cloth to achieve the shiniest possible result.
