About the Item

A charming 20th century Japanese ikebana basket, handwoven in the informal native Japanese style, distinct from the symmetrical Chinese tradition. This elegant piece features an asymmetrical open weave made from finely cut spotted bamboo strips, with a few natural twigs integrated along the sides, lending a spontaneous, organic character. The basket showcases the warm patina of aged, smoked bamboo, developed through years of careful use and storage. Its irregular rhythm and refined texture highlight the aesthetic sensibility of wabi-sabi—embracing the beauty in imperfection and natural aging. Dimensions: Width: 11 cm (4.33 in) Depth: 15 cm (5.9 in) Height (with handle): 40 cm (15.75 in) Period: 20th Century Materials: Smoked spotted bamboo, natural twigs Style: Japanese Mingei (folk craft), Wabi-Sabi This is a beautiful decorative object for connoisseurs of Japanese craft, ideal for display on a shelf or as part of a flower arrangement in a traditional or modern interior.
