A flower vase is used to hold fresh flowers or to display permanent flowers. Flowers are said to represent the Buddha's compassion, and the flowers are offered with their front facing the person praying. The basic Buddhist altar implements are called the "Sangusoku" (three pieces of Buddhist paraphernalia): a flower vase, incense burner, and candle holder. The sangusoku consists of an incense burner in the center, a candle holder to the right, and a flower vase to the left.
This elegant Takaoka copperware flower vase has been painstakingly crafted by skilled artisans. Made from brass, it is stable and will not break, making it safe and secure. Its muted color allows the colors of the flowers inside to pop, making it a perfect match for your Buddhist altar.
