About the Item

A beautiful example of Japanese craftsmanship, this Ikebana bamboo basket dates to the 20th century and showcases a finely woven structure with graceful proportions and elegant vertical form. Traditionally used in Ikebana—the Japanese art of flower arrangement—such baskets combine both function and aesthetic harmony, echoing the natural materials they are designed to hold. This piece is skillfully handwoven using thin strips of bamboo, with a balanced form and expressive patination developed over years of use and age. The natural color variations and surface wear add warmth and character, aligning with the wabi-sabi philosophy of beauty in imperfection and time. Whether used as a display object, a vessel for seasonal arrangements, or as a sculptural accent, this basket brings a quiet sophistication to any space.

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.
