Experience the elegance of HAKUICHI’s original Kanazawa gold leaf “Kodaihaku” series with this refined bamboo vase.
With just a single flower, it transforms your space into something graceful and radiant.
Crafted using the time-honored Beppu bamboo weaving technique, a nationally designated traditional craft of Japan, this vase showcases the natural beauty of bamboo. The surface is delicately shaved in a style called Hatsuri, creating a subtle texture that pairs beautifully with the shimmering Antique Gold Leaf.
<< Tradition meets modern design >>
Each piece in the Kodaihaku series features a distinctive gradient, achieved through a special gold leaf-making technique developed in Kanazawa. Unlike ordinary gold leaf, Kodaihaku naturally reveals multiple colors within each sheet, eliminating the need for elaborate decoration. Its simple brilliance makes this vase a versatile accent that feels both timeless and modern.
Please note:
Each vase is handcrafted, so the shades may vary slightly—some may appear with bluish or reddish tones.
Because natural bamboo is used, repeated exposure to water may cause cracking. If cracks appear, please avoid filling with water and instead use with dried flowers, or place a glass insert such as a cup or beaker inside. Learn More

This folding fan features a crackled pattern created using two types of foil—aluminum and tin—each in a similar color tone but with subtly different textures. The interplay of these materials allows you to appreciate the nuanced beauty of their color variations. The main shade, Keshizumi-iro (extinguished charcoal), is a deep gray that appears when the white ash is removed from cooled charcoal. It gives a soft, elegant impression that complements a wide range of clothing styles. The contrast between the delicate shimmer of the two foils adds to the refined charm of this piece. The reverse side has a gentle gradient in a subdued grayish pink, giving it a fresh and modern finish. Learn More
