HOZAN ZANGANA

The Heart of the Kami Collection- Rooted.

This object is the centerpiece of the Kami collection, seamlessly uniting Kurdish and Japanese design traditions. Inspired by the traditional Faranji vest from the Hawraman region, the vase transforms this symbol of function and warmth into an elegant, sculptural form. Its design mimics the organic growth of three branches emerging from roots, symbolizing connection and resilience.

Crafted from sustainable materials and adorned with luxurious Urushi lacquer, the vase’s deep, earthy tones echo the natural colors of soil, grounding it firmly in nature. The branching structure is reminiscent of Ikebana, the Japanese art of flower arrangement, which emphasizes harmony, balance, and simplicity. Rooted in centuries-old tradition, Ikebana flourished alongside the tea ceremony, reaching its height during the Edo Period (1603 - 1868). Today, with over 300 schools worldwide, this art form continues to evolve, blending nature and design to reflect the beauty of each season. The Rooted piece captures this spirit, offering a timeless platform for floral artistry that bridges tradition and modernity.
