Hafu Matsumoto’s bamboo vase is a literal slice of nature undisturbed. The clean cut and design of this vase, along with the unique notches of bamboo added to the exposed inside of the neck of the vase, creates an overall sophisticated object that celebrates the material of bamboo through minimal, smart, and clean design. With a soft, non disruptive finish, the surface of the vase seems to be preserved and highlighted instead of polished and covered, understanding nature and its natural beauty.
