About the Item

Ikebana basket for the art of flower arrangement. This ikebana basket features a weave pattern which creates a hexagon shape and a twisted handle. It has a rounded body with handle and copper-lined bamboo insert to hold water. It has a deep brown color from the bamboo being treated by a coal fire during the construction process.

The basket portion measures 10" in height and 31" in circumference, the handle measures 6" in height to a total height of 16". The bamboo and copper insert measures 8.25" in height and 13.5" in diameter.
