About the Item
Japanese Showa Period Twisted Bamboo Flower Basket
Dimensions: H 16 cm × W 23 cm × D 23 cm
This sculptural Japanese bamboo basket features a dynamic spiral weave design, with broad split bamboo strips tightly twisted to form a compact, bulbous body. The alternating bands of dark-stained and red-lacquered bamboo create a dramatic visual rhythm, emphasizing the basket’s three-dimensional movement and tactile texture. The rim is finished with a flat braid, anchoring the swirling form.
Originally intended as a hanakago (flower basket) for ikebana, this piece reflects both traditional craftsmanship and mid-century aesthetics. Its patina and soft lacquer wear enhance the character, marking it as a well-used and cherished object, likely sourced from a Japanese flea market.
Materials: Natural and lacquered bamboo
Condition: Good vintage condition with signs of use and surface wear
Provenance: Sourced from a flea market in Japan
Perfect as a display object, it carries the quiet charm and utility of everyday Japanese artistry.
