Customer Reviews
excellent
A big book, in both size and thickness, with lots of pix and step-by-step arrangements. It's my second favourite of over a dozen Ikebana books I have purchased (my favourite is the original version, published in 1968 and still available secondhand - ISBN 0810901943 - and with 350 pages whilst this book has about 200) and the many more that I have looked at. Definitely one for your bookshelves if you are interested in Ikebana.
