「結 MUSUBU」 is one of the latest artworks by Makoto Komatsu, designed as a commemorative product to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Ceramic Japan.

This unique vase consists of two interconnected parts, with a barrier inside that allows water to be poured in without flowing out from the other side, making it perfect for showcasing a single flower. When displayed at different angles or combined in different arrangements, it can also serve as a distinctive piece of art decoration, enriching your space with diverse perspectives.

It will be a great choice for wedding gifts, birthday gifts, Valentine's Day gifts, and more.
