Description
The Kuzumaki Vase is a tall, shapely piece with a narrow neck that flares out at the rim, a body that is fullest at the shoulder and a gentle taper towards the base. Its off-white surface has a dry, matt, slightly grainy texture, and almost the whole body is covered in a raised relief: wavy bands, stacked lines, arches and small circles, set in rows from the neck to the foot. It stands 61cm tall and 25.4cm wide, so it holds its own as a single piece without needing a group around it.
At 61cm, it is tall enough to stand on the floor beside a sofa, in a hallway corner or next to a fireplace, and it sits well on a wide console or sideboard with height to spare. The soft off-white works with pale oak, linen, warm greys and earthy tones, so it suits a calm living room as readily as a textured bedroom or a quiet reading nook. We like it filled with tall dried grasses, pampas or bare branches, or left empty to let the pattern speak; the raised bands catch light from a window and cast small shadows that shift through the day.
It weighs 7KG, which gives it a reassuring steadiness on the floor and helps it stay upright when tall stems lean one way. That weight also means it is best lifted with two hands and placed on a sturdy surface rather than a narrow, lightweight shelf. It measures 25.4cm long and 25.4cm wide, so check the depth of a console before you choose a spot. For care, a soft dry cloth or a soft brush reaches into the grooves of the relief and lifts dust from the grainy surface; skip abrasive cleaners, which could wear the texture that gives it its character.
