Used for ikebana flower displays, these Kenzan are becoming increasingly popular for western style flower arranging, doing away with florist green foam completely. The brass pins are strong enough for woody material, as well as soft green and grass stems.
Go the whole way with the discipline of the traditional ikebana schools - Ohara, Ikenobo etc, or head off-piste and do your own thing. The spiky bases hold woody and green stalks, in any position you want. Make criss-cross cuts into the bottom of larger twigs, to stick them in more easily. Lower into water in saucers or dishes, and top up daily.
Use the straightener (sold separately) to straighten any bent pins
