What is Ikebana?
Ikebana is the Japanese art of flower arranging. A playful and creative exploration into using flowers to create unique sculptural displays.
With the use of an ikebana kenzan, flowers can be pressed into metal pins & stand on end in the water. This creates a multitude of new ways to create and explore floral arranging.
Pair one of our handcrafted ikebana bowls or vases with an ikebana kenzan and you too can create a beautiful flower arrangement in an ikebana style.
