This listing is for a vintage Nambu Tekki hanging vase made around 50 years ago. It is made of iron and moulded to resemble a crescent-shaped koi suspended by two hooks. One hook can be removed if you wish to adjust the length. It’s in good condition and displays well.
Nambu tekki is traditional Japanese ironware with both traditional and modern designs, including brightly coloured contemporary products for the French market. Nambu tekki was produced in Morioka City and in Mizusawa City to the south. It first started when craftsmen came from Kyoto and started producing ironware such as tea kettles, weapons, and temple bells. Today tea pots and kettles are still made by hand using traditional techniques.
