Japanese Small Bamboo Ikebana Basket for Ikebana– Handwoven, Early 20th Century

About the Item

A beautifully handwoven Japanese bamboo basket, crafted in the early 20th century for use in ikebana (the art of flower arranging). This tall, narrow form with a rounded rim and twisted handle is both elegant and functional, showing the refined aesthetic of traditional bamboo craftsmanship. The warm, reddish-brown tone highlights the natural beauty of the aged bamboo, while the tightly interlaced plaited pattern and vertical supports demonstrate exceptional technique and attention to detail. Despite its modest size, the basket conveys a quiet strength and balance—ideal for displaying a single branch or flower in a tokonoma (alcove) or as a sculptural accent in a modern space.
