Whether you're a seasoned floral designer or just starting out, a traditional Japanese Kenzan (or flower frog) will take your flower arranging skills to the next level. This tried-and-true florist tool, traditionally used in the ancient art of ikebana, provides a reliable base for keeping stems in place and a sustainable alternative to floral foam. Niwaki's round version is expertly crafted in Japan with strong brass pins that can hold woody and green stalks alike while naturally opening the stems for better water absorption, ensuring your blooms last longer.

Niwaki’s products are crafted to last for years. With proper care, the Japanese carbon steel will stay sharp and usable, and your Niwaki products can be passed onto future generations.

Adam ★★★★★

I've been arranging flowers for years and never bothered with one of these until now. The dense needle bed holds even thin stems exactly where I put them, and my arrangements finally look intentional instead of droopy.

Amelia ★★★★★

I'm a total beginner with flower arranging and this made me look like I actually know what I'm doing. The weighted base keeps even top-heavy stems standing straight, which was my biggest problem before. Finally got my dahlias to stay exactly where I wanted them.

Scarlett ★★★★★

The brass pins are dense enough that even thin-stemmed flowers stay exactly where I push them. I've been arranging grocery store bouquets for years and this finally makes them look intentional.
