Nousaku 100% Tin Flower Vase Lasso Maru

Manufacturing Buddhist altar fittings in Takaoka since 1916, NOUSAKU has established its brand since 1967. Using 400-year-old techniques they initially specialized in altar articles, vases and tea equipment.

This Flower Vase from NOUSAKU is made 100% of tin. Tin is the most expensive metal after gold and silver and is extremely malleable. Although its appearance strongly resembles silver, it is not affected by air and does not easily rust. It is also antibacterial, absorbs impurities, hardly causes allergic reactions and even purifies water, making it the perfect material for table- and kitchenware, which NOUSAKU is well known for.

The tin can be folded over and over without breaking. The Nousaku flexible ware are often nicknamed ‘Tincry’, after the cracking sound the tin makes when bent. Yet, despite these cries, it won’t break. The vase and its rings can be customized and shaped to your liking and can therefore adapt to growing flowers; the rings will not only decorate, but also support the flower stems. Size:  H115 W60 D73mm
