Description from the seller


Item Description

A hand-woven bamboo flower basket (hanakago) with a tall arched handle, made as a flower vessel for the tea ceremony (chado) and flower arranging (kado). The body is woven in a bold, open cross-weave of mottled bamboo strips, while the handle is bound with twisted vine, giving the piece a rustic, natural character. An inner water container (otoshi) is included, so flowers can be arranged and displayed right away.

The mark 定竹斎 (Teichikusai) is engraved on the base, with the characters picked out in red. Carefully woven and practical in form, the basket suits both seasonal flower arrangements and interior display.

Dimensions: height approx. 37 cm (including handle), width approx. 23 cm, depth approx. 18.5 cm.
Weight: approx. 317 g.

Condition: Good pre-owned condition, with light dust consistent with age. No unravelling of the weave and no noticeable scratches or chips. The original box is not included.
