OSHIBANA - very unique hand-built ceramic footed cups collection (can be used as ice cream and desert vases), handbuilt using slab construction technique
Oshibana (押し花) is the art of using pressed flowers and other botanical materials to create an entire picture from these natural elements. Such pressed flower art consists of drying flower petals and leaves in a flower press to flatten them, exclude light and press out moisture. These elements are then used to "paint" an artistic composition. The origin of this art form has been traced to 16th century Japan, but it is now practiced worldwide. The resulting artwork is referred to as an oshibana.
ART LAB ceramic cup collection is named after this form of art due to the resemblence, there are no actual pressed flowers in the finish of ceramic piece.
