Japanese Late Meiji Period (1868-1912) Woven Bamboo Basket, Early 20th Century

About the Item

An elegant woven bamboo basket from the late Meiji period, dating to the early 20th century. This tall, finely crafted piece exemplifies the artistry and technical mastery of Japanese bamboo weaving. Its elongated, cylindrical form and uniform, tightly woven pattern reflect the balance of form and function that defines traditional Japanese design. Originally used for storage or display, the basket's natural bamboo material lends it a warm, organic character. A beautiful example of Meiji-era craftsmanship, this piece remains both decorative and historically significant.
