TSUBAKI

Illustrated is a simple, yet elegant yabu-tsubaki camellia japonica in a even simpler Shigaraki vase by Kohyama Yasuhisa. The lone opened camellia blossom is flanked by several other buds and leaves from a single stem now residing in a rustic and worn vase suspended on a cypress plank. The beauty of a simple object is many times best defined through use and in this case, it appears that this vase was created for this very moment in time.
