About the Item
An exceptional 19th-century Japanese ikebana basket, masterfully woven with bold, sweeping bands of smoked bamboo. Its organic form exudes rustic elegance, further emphasized by the sculptural natural branch handle—a rare feature that enhances both its visual dynamism and wabi-sabi spirit. This basket embodies the informal Japanese aesthetic, favoring asymmetry and natural irregularities over perfection. The deep patina and tactile richness are testaments to its age and use. A striking example of traditional craftsmanship with a strong sculptural presence, ideal for display or floral arrangement.

Japanese Bamboo Ikebana Basket by Yamamoto Chikuryosai I Shoen
Located in Atlanta, GA
An important Japanese bamboo Ikebana basket by Yamamoto Chikuryosai I (also known as Chikuryusai I, Shoen after 1929) (1868-1945). Active in Osaka, Kansai region, he was advised by Wada Waichisai I. After 1929, he signed his work as Shoen (Shoen made this), such as this one.
This basket was made using "sooted" bamboo (susutake in Japanese). This bamboo materials was collected from traditional thatched-roof houses that had been exposed to decades of smoke from a hearth or cooking fire, therefore the basket displays a deep rich patina that is hard to attain by color-lacquering. The basket featured a large rounded barrel form with handle. The body was constructed with a twill plaiting variation of a more relaxed and loose weave. It allows the light coming through to render the piece a lighter sense. Parallel plaiting was used to reinforce the body with stripes of bamboo, while adding more visual constrict to a free spirited background. Twisted bamboo strips form rope-like handle and the top rim. It is signed "Shoen Made This" on the base. Two-piece water container made from bamboo trunk is retained with the piece as shown.
