This is a Yakusugi Decorative Vase with Handles Awa-Kobu crafted by Wood craftsman Mr. Kawashita.

This decorative vase is crafted from exceptionally rare Awa-Kobu (bubble burl) Yakusugi material.
Only a limited amount of Awa-Kobu material is large enough to create a decorative vase of this size, making this an extremely rare and highly valuable piece.

泡瘤 The true charm of Awa-Kobu lies, above all, in the beauty of its patterns.
It is characterized by naturally formed circular motifs and wood grain patterns, with countless small rounded shapes resembling bubbles rising on the surface of water.
A “kobu” (burl) forms when a tree is damaged or undergoes abnormal growth, causing resin to accumulate and create a raised, knot-like formation. Among these, “Awa-Kobu” refers to a hard, bubble-like mass that swells like a balloon, typically forming on the trunk or near the base of the tree.
Awa-Kobu is highly prized for its beauty and is used in fine, high-end woodcraft pieces.
The intricate Awa-Kobu patterns flowing across the sides are truly breathtaking.
It is, in every sense, a decorative vase worthy of being called a masterpiece of beauty.

*One-of-a-kind item.
*Please refer to the photos.

泡瘤黒模様 This exceptional piece showcases the refined craftsmanship of Wood craftsman Mr. Kawashita.

Dark, naturally formed recesses are etched into the sides, blending the raw beauty of nature with the unique character of Yakusugi. Depending on its orientation, the vase reveals a variety of expressive appearances.

With a height of approximately 51.5 cm and a weight of about 14.4 kg, this decorative vase possesses a substantial and dignified presence.
*The bottom features a branded stamp with the name "Yukinori Kawashita", certifying his craftsmanship.
