Gourd shaped flower vase made by glass artist Masao Kozumi. The object is made by using an air-blown glass technique. The work, inspired by ancient objects, has an original unique greenish color and shimmering effect due to the iron and other elements in the raw materials used in the glass. The glassware is formed by blowing into the glass attached to a blowpipe using the air-blowing and mold-blowing techniques. Not many pieces are successfully completed because the thickness of the mouth is made very thin and fragile. The smooth curves of this hanging vase are shaped like a gourd for good luck. The shape is beautiful and will add a touch of color to the seasonal flowers placed inside. It can be hung on the wall using a string attached to the hollow of the gourd.
【Masao Kozumi】 Masao Kozumi is a glass artist born in Kumamoto in 1979. After graduating from Toyama City Institute of Glass Art, Kozumi starts working with glass in Asahimachi, Toyama. He is currently based in Gifu. His nostalgic looking pale green glasses are much thinner than their appearance. Its sophisticated and serene form matches perfectly with Japanese food.
