AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Item Description
A hand-woven bamboo flower basket (hanakago) used for tea flowers in a tea room. Flat bamboo strips are woven in a arrow-feather (herringbone) pattern, resulting in a sculptural form with a pointed tip and a gentle twist. The corners are secured with light-coloured rattan. Inside the basket sits a black insert container for holding water and flowers. A small rattan loop on the side allows it to be hung and displayed.
The warm golden hue of the bamboo and the rhythmic, open weave make this a striking decorative object in its own right. It pairs beautifully with tea ceremony settings, ikebana arrangements, and minimalist interiors.

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.
