About the Item
A vintage Japanese ikebana basket, crafted from lacquered bamboo using traditional basketry techniques, dating to the first half of the 20th century. This elegant piece embodies the delicate artistry of bamboo weaving, featuring a gracefully arched tall handle.
The artist skillfully utilized split bamboo culms, which form the four base supports and seamlessly transition into the cornered structural poles, subtly tapering towards the rim before blending into the intricate plaiting. The basket’s twill plaiting technique enhances its refined aesthetic, transitioning from a double weave at the base to a single weave at the upper portion, further emphasizing its sense of lightness.
The handle and rim are crafted from carefully bent bamboo strips, while a three-pronged split detail at the handle’s construction not only reinforces the basket’s durability but also introduces a subtle decorative element. A beautiful example of Japanese bamboo artistry, this piece captures both functionality and aesthetic refinement, making it a timeless addition to any collection.
