Kenzan Flower Frogs

$22.00 Sale Save

"Celebrate the New Year with a lush ikebana flower arrangement using traditional decorations of pine, bamboo and berries. Pine is a symbol of longevity, while red berries called 'senryo' are considered lucky for their bright and happy color. Metal kenzans placed at the base of a wide bowl or vase can keep flower arrangements upright as well as fresh by opening up the stem for greater water flow."

Description:
Each kenzan is made up of a heavy base with many spikes. Flowers can be speared onto the kenzan to create beautiful, unique flower arrangements. Not only does the use of a kenzan in flower arranging lead to a beautiful appearance, your flowers will also stay alive for a longer period of time. Place inside any bowl or deep plate for a serene flower arrangement.  

History: 

Kenzan are crucial tools in the art of Ikebana, a method of flower arranging that has been practiced in Japan since the Heian Period (794 - 1185). At first, flower arrangements mostly appeared at Buddhist shrines. Ikebana continues to be included in Japanese tea ceremonies and as a source of beauty inside of the home.

Materials: 
Steel with silicon ring along base to hold kenzan in place.
