Description

Diane Love for Mikasa Black Geometric Ikebana Vase, Japan, 10.5”

Handcrafted modernist ceramic vase designed by Diane Love for Mikasa, Japan, circa 1979–83. The tall, tapered rectangular form features faceted planes and a small square auxiliary opening at the rim—an ikebana-friendly detail seen in Love’s work. Finished in a glossy black glaze with subtle handmade variation. Base maker marked: “DIANE LOVE™ for MIKASA — JAPAN, HANDCRAFTED.” A sculptural accent for contemporary interiors and a refined vessel for minimalist floral arrangements. Don’t miss this elegant example from Love’s sought-after Mikasa collaboration.
