Tanaka Wall Vase – Long

Sometimes the most beautiful works of art are the simplest. Handmade by Keiichi Tanaka, this rectangular, bridge-like vase holds just a few sprigs of flowers. Set it up on the wall and watch while the afternoon sun casts a shadow of its legs over the wall. Explore Tanaka’s full collection here.

About Keiichi Tanaka
The work of Keiichi Tanaka stems from a lifelong fascination with the overlooked beauty of functional objects. Inspired by the visual poetry of agricultural implements, Tanaka creates rustic-yet-contemporary work that invokes an atmosphere of, as he puts it, “time accumulation” – the sense that an object could be equally at home in a long-ago past or a not-so-distant future. Tanaka has exhibited his art widely throughout Japan and Europe.
