[princessladylee]

Absolutely wonderful, the techniques and the symplicity...

Faço Ikebana há 16 anos e cada vez que vejo um arranjo desses fico mais encantada.

How much one learns from the artist's calm, delicate handwork. I never knew about the bending techniques -- such exquisite control this person has, over every tiny element of the total result.

i dont know much abt it but i love it, just wondering how the stems stand so nicely in the vase? plz help!

[TheKoudel]

Beautiful, but should not be cutting the stems in water? Would last longer.

Tenia otra idea de como se hace un akebana, me e quedado imprecionado la maestria y la dificultad FELICIDADES

[claudeleason]

the music is as good. ikebana is a great art. the harmony between nature and human mind.

[nirmalanm1946]

Perfectly done and I was taken back to 1992 when we had 19 of Enshu school teachers in our city. At that time all 19 of them did the same process! Really Wonderful!

[OmegaWolf747]

So pretty! It's awesome how this timeless art has lasted.

I did not fully comprehend what he did with the first carefully trimmed stems. Did he graft them together to make the center tall stem--the heaven?

[NoireMagie]

An update : The thing in the vase is called a Yagen. Yagen is used for crashing oriental medicine by 180 years ago in Japan. It ismade of wood, and used for Enshiu classic style of ikebana, instead of kenzan (needle point holder)

[venkimayyu]

What a beautiful arrangement! Truly a Master's work. The bending techniques are amazing. The "thing in the vase with slits" is called a Kenzan. Normally needle point pin holders used. Only it is slightly different. Maybe because of the material used. And the vase is also considered.

[rosmeardesigns]

I've learned some technique from this video, thanks of posting. Though by breaking and bending cherry blossom branches, I'm afraid the arrangement might not last a week.

[teamshintaichi]

amazing

[lpmar176]

Wow,

Outstanding and as previously said... great skill and dedication.

Thanks for sharing!!

[stickkyboi]

outstanding project!! great skill..

[avensisblue]

It is called "Yagen-kubari"or simplly "Kubari",made of magnolia obovata.

Usually, there are two types of kubari. One is the three long slits and another is five slits in it.

It should be fit of each caliber of vase by way of cutting and curving to be steady.

you can choose one depend on what kind of materials you use for an ikebana work.

And also you may make any style of ikebana , not have to care about the weight of bending some branches you want to do, because of using it.

[narumosesL]

do you know what the thing in the vase is called? the thing with like three long slits in it?
