Every year on January 15, Sweden celebrates “Tulpanens dag” (Tulip Day), a beloved tradition that brings color, hope, and joy into the darkest time of the year. Tulips have become a true symbol of Swedish winter optimism, and the day is all about enjoying them to the fullest.
To celebrate, we’re offering 25% off our two most loved flower arranging tools - for a limited time only!
For a limited time, enjoy 25% off:
Acrylic Kenzan A modern, transparent kenzan that lets your flowers take center stage. Our acrylic kenzan is perfect for soft stemmed flowers like tulips, ranunculus and anemones. This kenzan becomes almost invisible when under water.
Kenzan Ring, 120 mm If you love creating natural compositions, using branches for example, this is the tool you need! It’s strong and sturdy enough to hold those beautiful crooked branches we all love. It's also a great option if you often use roses in your arrangements.
Our tools are designed to support simple, well-balanced arrangements for any setting, from home interiors to workspaces and gifts.
Why tulips + kenzan are a perfect match
Tulips are lively and expressive, but they can also be a little unruly. A kenzan gives you control without taking away their natural movement, allowing you to:
Place each stem exactly where you want it
Enjoy a cleaner, more sustainable alternative to floral foam
Create longer-lasting arrangements
It’s a simple way to elevate your tulips into something truly special!
At Hanataba, we love Tulip day because it’s a reminder of how powerful flowers can be - simple, beautiful, and deeply uplifting. But this day is about more than flowers - it’s about welcoming light, creativity, and small moments of joy into everyday life.
Do you need a vase to pair with your kenzan? Check out our selection of vases and trays here.
Did you know?
Tulips originally come from Central Asia, not the Netherlands.
Tulips were a symbol of wealth and refinement in the Ottoman Empire during the 1500s.
At the height of Tulip Mania in Holland in the 1630s, a single tulip bulb could be worth more than a house.
Tulips were introduced to Northern Europe in the 16th century and helped shape the Dutch flower industry.
During World War II, tulip bulbs were eaten as food during times of famine.
Sweden is now one of the world’s largest consumers of tulips per capita, especially in winter. Over 150 million tulips are sold annually in Sweden.
Received as part of a bundle for my birthday. Not had time to try the bouquet twisters yet but loved setting up the flowers on this and they held and lasted a long time. Excited to play around some more.
Glasyren har runnit väldigt osnyggt, klump i botten, ränder och ojämn i färgen. Inget speciellt med skålen heller. Har frukostskålar från IKEA som står bättre.

Thank you for your honest feedback, Emma. We’re very sorry that the bowl you received didn’t meet the standard we expect from our products.
As I wrote to you in our email conversation, we’ve sent a new bowl to you, and of course, you don’t need to return the one you already have.
We truly appreciate you bringing this to our attention and hope the replacement will be much more in line with what you expected from us.
Super schön! Die Schale ist genauso, wie ich sie mir vorgestellt habe ☺️ Ich habe absolut nichts auszusetzen und kann die Schale zu 100% weiterempfehlen.
This is a beautiful tool. It is sturdy and well-made. Heavy and a delight to use. I absolutely love it and would recommend it to anyone who wants to do large airy arrangements.
Roligt att man kan göra andra sorts arrangemang med blommorna. Passar perfekt för dahlior som inte går att ha i bukett då stjälkarna är för korta ibland. Övar fortfarande med hanataban men fakirerna är toppen!
I love my new flower ring and vase. I am looking forward to experimenting with more flowers. It will be a joy to keep filling it with seasonal flowers.
I wish the acrylic ring was a larger size.
Zonder enige ervaring met bloemen kon ik een mooi bloemstuk uit mijn eigen tuin voor op tafel samenstellen. Het is wel even uitvinden hoe ik de stelen moet afknippen zodat het boeket mooi rechtop blijft staan. Superleuk om op deze manier met bloemen bezig te kunnen zijn!
First one arrived with paint defect after a few days I got a response and a replacement was sent out very swift delivery but then that once arrived smashed to pieces currently still waiting on a email response to the second arriving smashed
Shame as the item is nice am just having a lot of issues
