Vintage Japanese Ikebana Vase - MCM Faux Bronze Cast Metal Bamboo Pillar 9"

Vintage Japanese Ikebana Pillar Vase - Faux Bronze Cast Metal, 9 tall.  Add a touch of minimalist elegance to your home with this vintage Japanese Ikebana flower vase (kabin). Featuring a sleek, geometric square-column design, this tall bud vessel is beautifully decorated with a raised relief of bamboo leaves, butterfly, and metallic gold accents.  This piece captures the heavy, dark aesthetic of traditional cast bronze but is crafted from a lighter cast base metal (likely spelter or zinc alloy) with a patinated dark finish. It is an excellent example of mid-century Shōwa era design, perfect for minimalist arrangements, Mid-Century Modern styling, or Asian-inspired home decor.  * Era: Mid-20th Century (Shōwa Period) * Design: Square pillar with bamboo leaf relief * Material: Patinated cast base metal (faux bronze look) * Height: Approximately 9 inches  Condition: Good vintage condition. Light surface wear consistent with age, including some thinning of the dark patina on some edges revealing the lighter base metal underneath (visible upon inspection of the bottom). No stamps or maker's marks.
