Large Woven Wicker Crane, Shanghai Handicrafts
About the Item
This is a stunning example of the highest level of basket weaving. The crane was created by the Shanghai Handicrafts Co. in the mid-20th century, c. 1960-1970. The Crane is in excellent condition with just a touch of natural patina. The weaving is tight, exhibiting no faults. The woven crane rests on a woven plinth with one leg resting on a carved wood support. The wings of the crane are removable, revealing a yellow lacquered box. Wicker animal sculptures of this size, age, quality of fabrication and condition are uncommon--this piece checks all of those categories.
