The kusabana kenzan features thinner, more densely packed needles than regular kenzan. Use this kenzan when arranging smaller, more delicate stems that won’t securely fit on the normal type. The number of needles on the Kusabana kenzan is about 1.2 to 2 times that of a regular kenzan of the same size.
A kenzan (剣山), also called spiky frog, is a specific device used in the Japanese art of flower arrangement ikebana (生花) for fixing the flowers in the container. It consists of a heavy lead plate with erected brass needles where the spikes are fixed. The name kenzan (剣山) literally means ‘sword mountain’. Since they come in many different sizes and shapes, it can be used with almost any vase or bowl to make beautiful floral arrangements. The needles of the kenzan provide stable support for all types of plant stems and branches, allowing your creativity to soar without fear that your arrangements will fall over. For these kusabana kenzan, a rubber cover is attached to the bottom so as not to damage the vessel.
When choosing which kenzan is right for you, make sure to first measure the opening of your vessel and choose a size that is small enough. Select a shape that works with your vessel, type of flowers, and arrangement design; round is most common, but many other shapes are available. Different coloured kenzan serve different purposes as well. The gold brass colour stands out a little more and can add a warm glow to your flowers. The black kenzan will serve a calm and discreet purpose in a dark colour vessel.
Each piece is individually constructed by a skilled craftsman in Niigata prefecture, Japan, so there may be very slight variations in weight and dimensions.
