TETSU Metal Holders

The glass tube holders, which finally solve the problem:

Glass tubes can be exchanged easily to be washed and refilled with water and new flowers, as they are secured by 2 sturdy rings.

2 flexible metal legs allow stable placement in floral foams or clay bases or wooden blocks or on twigs.

Until now, we fixed glass tubes directly onto constructions or twigs. While this is a good technique for one-time designs, the TETSU holders aim into the opposite direction: they are meant to being re-used, they stay fixed to where they are, just the glasstubes get taken out, washed and refilled with fresh water. No untying, no retying. No glue, nothing. A sustainable solution, meant to enable REFILLING in a proper way.
The glass tubes can be exchanged easily, get cleaned and filled up with fresh water, they go back into the holder to create a base for a new fresh flower.

TETSU are an original invention by Gabriele Kubo.

The holder itself should be fixed tightly and neatly to hold the position for a long time.

These holders make our constructions last for far longer, enlarging their value. And the "TETSU" finally allows the end customer to use our design constructions. The customer can refill new flowers by themselves, with the good feeling of designing while giving their flowers good clean water in a clean glasstube.

Biodegradable iron

As simple as possible, the holders are made out of thin iron, therefore biocompostable as they are.

They can be covered with any decoration material, dry leaves, wool, yarn, bark, felt, just wrap onto them.

2 legs 2 rings

The TETSU holders consists out of 2 stable rings to hold the glass tubes, ending in a beautiful end section.

When we fix glass tubes to constructions, we need 2 positions to fix, so do the metal holders. Therefore 2 long legs are added to perform stability.

TETSU techniques

See, how Gregor Lersch uses them, hammering the 2 stable legs into wood with his famous "Ting Ting" technique.

Imagine, how easily you can exchange the flowers, realize how often you can re-use this base!

Many more techniques

From putting a fresh flower right into a dry bouquet to adding cut flowers into planted arrangements, there are many decorative ways to use the TETSU holders. Also, there are a lot of techniques to add the holders into constructions. See the gallery!

The main aspect is to enable ourselves and our customers to reuse our designs in a proper clean and uncomplicated way.
