Description from the seller
Item Description
A Japanese bamboo flower basket (hanakago) with a braided handle. It features an openwork weave and a gently narrowing body shaped like a gourd. Around the center of the body, a reddish-brown band is wrapped and tied in a decorative knot. Inside, there is a removable bamboo tube (otoshi) for holding water and flowers. The base has a radial weave pattern, and the rim is finished with careful braiding.
It can be used as a flower container for ikebana or a tea ceremony setting, or displayed on its own as a handcrafted bamboo artwork. The bamboo tube measures approximately 14 cm in length with an inner diameter of 3.2 cm.

Seller's Story
A Japanese living in Japan, I appreciate traditional and modern art.
I specialize in selecting artworks that reflect quiet strength, refined beauty, and timeless craftsmanship of Japanese culture. My collection focuses on pieces that carry a story—whether traditional ukiyo‑e prints, contemporary works inspired by wabi‑sabi aesthetics, or handcrafted items created by regional artisans.
I take pride in offering works that are both visually compelling and culturally meaningful. Every item is carefully curated for authenticity, condition, and artistic value, ensuring that bidders can participate with confidence.
My goal is to connect international collectors with the richness of Japanese artistry—pieces that bring harmony, character, and a touch of Japan’s spirit into your home.
I look forward to sharing these works with you and hope they inspire the same appreciation and joy they bring to me.
