Short, barrel-shaped vase by Yushi Ito from March 2026.

This traditional vase shape is inspired by the shape of Japanese sake barrels and is often used in ikebana (Japanese flower arranging).

Finished in a lovely, soft, understated white, it will contrast beautifully with either dark dried arrangements or colourful blooms.

We have two barrel vases in this series - sold individually by lovely as a pair.
