Mid Century Japanese Woven Bamboo Basket Folk Art

About the Item

Unique piece from Japan Beautifully handcrafted bamboo basket with intricate weaving technique and lovely shape. Simple and elegant. A handmade quality piece - built for function, designed for pleasure. Wonderful condition - would make an incredible addition to your collection or to your home. The history of this basket comes from Japan, where I had it them at an antique shop close to a neighbouring shrine.. Some 90 minutes or so by subway from Tokyo. Like all my items - they speak to tradition, quality, craftsmanship, history and sense of place. Items that are one of a kind. Holding some sensibility of mystery while also existing as a functional object. Items to enrich your life - to share a story with friends or family. When you own this piece it then becomes a part of your story, the narrative of your own life.
