Description

A Japanese Export silver vase

Elegant perfection, the trumpet shaped vase just has a caste iris bloom wrapped around the column as decoration.

The iris flower carries significant symbolism, representing faith hope , courage  and wisdom

It’s also associated with divine guidance, strength, and renewal, with meanings that can vary based on color and variety.

In ancient Greece, the iris was linked to the goddess Iris, a messenger between heaven and earth, and was used in funerary rituals.

In France, the iris became the national symbol, the fleur-de-lis, and is also the February birth flower. 

The vase is the perfect shape to display so many different flowers
