Elegant Japanese studio pottery ikebana vessel featuring a square, gently rounded form finished in a rich indigo-navy glaze. The top is hand-painted with a soft, brush-style botanical motif in dusty blue, cream, and rust tones, and includes a built-in metal flower frog (1-inch diameter) for securing floral arrangements — a traditional element of ikebana display vessels. The underside bears an impressed cursive artist's signature on a contrasting cream glazed panel, confirming this as a signed piece of studio pottery. Compact in scale at approximately 5" x 5" and standing about 1.5" tall, this low, wide form is ideal for arranging shorter stems, branches, or floating blooms in the traditional Japanese style. A lovely piece for collectors of Japanese ceramics, ikebana practitioners, or studio pottery enthusiasts.
