A calm, creative little ritual in a box. This Fuji ikebana set from Burgon & Ball has everything you need to try Japanese flower arranging: a low stoneware bowl with a diagonal dip glaze in a soft blue grey, and a steel kenzan (the spiked “frog”) that holds your stems upright so they stay where you put them.

Ikebana is about simplicity and space rather than big bunches, so a few stems from the garden or a single supermarket bunch will do. It arrives in a printed gift box made from recyclable cardboard, with a QR code inside that leads to ikebana inspiration. That makes it an easy gift for a gardener, a flower lover or anyone who fancies a quiet new hobby. We deliver across the UK.
