These bud vases are known as an Ikebana, which is an oriental style of flower arrangement. It is a fluted pedestal bowl with a three hole stem to hold cut flowers. There are holes at the bottom of the stems for the flowers to access the water, plus there is a Seahorse that can be seen in the bottom. These are the most unique and perhaps cutest items that we create. Each one is signed on the bottom and there is a permanent stamp that has our pottery name and that it is handmade in Sanger Texas
