Kenzan Large
Used for ikebana flower displays, Niwaki's Kenzan Large is becoming increasingly popular for western style flower arranging, doing away with that old-skool dark green foam completely. The brass pins are strong enough for woody material, as well as soft green and grass stems.
You can put the Kenzan in a shallow bowl - we love to match it up with Hasami Porcelain - or in a vase, buy your favorite flower, or the one that blooms right now, cut and compose.
Find inspiration in books like Modern Ikebana, or head off-piste and do your own thing. The spiky base holds woody and green stalks, in any position you want. Make criss-cross cuts into the bottom of larger twigs, to stick them in easier. Lower into water in saucers or dishes, and top up daily.

Measures Ø8 cm
Made of brass pins, rust proof
Made in Japan
Niwaki x Misc Store Amsterdam
Niwaki brings the very best in Japanese design and craftsmanship, inspiring gardeners and craftsmen to do the stuff they love, even better. They source and manufacture an extraordinary range of fine garden and woodworking tools, kitchen knives and outdoor gear.
Niwaki means garden tree. Not very exciting, but it implies far more than that. Japanese gardens are landscapes, microcosms of nature, and the trees are all shaped to fit into those landscapes — there’s an awful lot of artistry and cultural baggage in there too. Jake’s written a book on it all, if you’re interested. So, the name. Hard to pronounce (ni-whacky) and tricky to remember, but we like it because of its implications.
