Pocket vases

We use recycled jars and
bottles to make flower pocket
vases or rooting jars. Some of the jars we used are placed, as they are, in the kiln with a mold inside them to give them the slumpled pocket vase shape. Others, like beer bottles, have had the tops removed from them first, then they are placed in the kiln to slump. The entire process takes 24 hours at a very hot temperature.

Iekabana is the Japanese art of flower arranging. Contrary to the idea of flower arrangements being a collection of multicolored flowers in a container, Iekabana often emphasizes other areas of the plant, such as its stems and leaves, and draws emphasis towards shape, line, form of the arrangement. More than simply putting flowers in a container, Iekabana is an art form in which nature and humanity are brought together. The container is a key element of the composition. These Iekabana flower trays are made from fused, slumped glass. They come with a flower frog, which is essential to the arrangement
