A classic, no-nonsense tool that quietly does the hard work. The 1-ring Shippo is a traditional Hanadome (flower holder) used in ikebana to support stems.
Sturdy metal rings allowing branches and flowers to be positioned securely while preserving a natural, effortless look. It’s especially handy when a kenzan won’t fit or would distract from the design.
