THE KIYOKO UYEDA COLLECTION OF IKEBANA [JAPANESE STYLE OF FLOWER ARRANGING] BOOK COLLECTION
1853-2004. The collection consists of 432 primarily 20th century to the present books pertaining to the Ikebana style of flower arranging, with the majority in Japanese and a small portion published in both English and Japanese language. The collection was constructed by Kyoko Uyeda, the former president of the Potomac chapter of Ikebana Ikebono Society, over a 40 year period. The collection is a comprehensive collection of works on Ikebana based on information provided by the owner. Because of language barriers, Second Story Books has had difficulty identifying the titles of the books, but has provided clear images of the titles of the books on the spine where applicable. This is the only degree of information that we are able to provide as to the scope and content of the collection. We are offering the collection for physical inspection at our Rockville location or by Zoom as an alternative to a physical written inventory. Second Story Books is offering the collection in its entirety only and welcomes inquiries. Second Story Books is offering this collection in its entirety for $15,000 and applicable shipping costs. To set up an appointment to see the books physically or to set up a Zoom, please contact Allan Stypeck. More
