Japanese antique Large basket woven with grape vines/1868-1920/Vase on the wall

About the Item

This is an old Japanese basket made from the Meiji period to the Taisho period (1868-1920). The material is made of wild grape vines, and it is thought that originally it was tied with a string so that it could be carried on the back. It is a basket that farmers use when they go to pick wild vegetables. It's a rustic cage. It was made in the Tohoku region of Japan. Because it is a cold region, it is blackened by being smoked by the hearth. Very good looking. Since it is an old one, there are some places where the vine is cut, and there is one hole in the bottom part. However, even though it was used for farming in the mountains, it is in good condition. It was probably stored carefully. In addition, the vines are sturdy and have a peculiar shape because they have been stored for many years. Therefore, it is not in a soft state. Watch the video. It was an important tool that the common people could not live without. Many of them have been thrown away in modern times, and there are few existing ones, making them very rare items. Moreover, it is in relatively good condition, and pieces of this size rarely come on the market even in Japan. Hang it on the wall and use it as an object or vase. Also, if you want to use it as a vase, fill the bamboo tube with water and insert the flowers. We believe that it is our mission to convey the charm of such old things and leave them behind. Also, I want many people to know the goodness of antiques, so I set the price reasonably. Highly recommended item. Weight: 1.45kg "Note" The artificial flowers shown in the photo are not included.
