About the Item

Rare brass ikebana basket made to imitate the traditional Japanese basketry (hanakago) that usually use bamboo and rattan. Of trapezoidal form with a round opening, a tight collar and its foot stretch to the base. The basket can be exposed both standing on its foot or hanging by the hook on its back. Adorned with a dragon on the upper section and a bee and butterfly in the middle section. Its shape and details are finely executed and imitates the classic basketry perfectly. With a different medium, the artist bypasses the constraints of wood and add entomologic and mythical theme on the piece, that are usually not around traditional basketry.
