About the Item

Tall Japanese Bamboo Flower Basket with Handle – Early 20th Century Dimensions: 19 x 27 x H 52 cm Material: Natural bamboo, rattan, wood An elegant and well-proportioned Japanese flower basket (hanakago), likely made in the early to mid-20th century. The piece features a tall, jar-like body with refined vertical weave in dark reddish-brown hues, alternating between thin and wide bamboo strips. The high arched handle is crafted with split bamboo, bound with fine rattan knots and decorative twine, demonstrating the artisan’s mastery of traditional basketry techniques. This type of basket was commonly used in ikebana (Japanese flower arrangement) and tea ceremonies, often placed in tokonoma alcoves or hung for seasonal displays. The wide mouth and sturdy base make it functional as well as decorative. A fine patina adds depth to the surface, suggesting careful use and good age. A beautiful example of Japanese craftsmanship—perfect for collectors of bamboo art, ikebana practitioners, or interior designers looking for natural Japanese accents. Condition: Very good vintage condition with minor wear consistent with age. No breaks or repairs.
