Iwatsu / Hineri Indigo Art Glass Handkerchief Tulip Bowl

PLEASE NOTE: This item is available exclusively online.

This elegant Iwatsu / Hineri Handkerchief Tulip Bowl is a refined expression of postwar Japanese art glass, defined by its fluid contours and harmonious colour palette. The form rises from a gently rounded base into free-flowing, petal-like folds, evoking the soft drape of fabric or the delicate bloom of a tulip. Each curve feels intentional yet organic, inviting close inspection from every angle.

The glass is expertly cased with a translucent indigo exterior that diffuses light with a soft, glowing warmth. Subtle variations in thickness enhance the bowl’s depth and tactility, while the hineri-style shaping introduces an elegant sense of motion. Whether displayed as a standalone sculptural object or used as a decorative bowl, this piece exemplifies the quiet sophistication and craftsmanship of mid-century Japanese glass design.
