AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Item Description
A decorative woven basket vessel finished in glossy black lacquer with red lacquer showing through along the edges of the strips. The rounded, ball-shaped body is made of interlaced flat strips. The strips cross and loop around the mouth in a sculptural pattern, leaving open gaps in the weave. A dark inner insert sits inside the opening. The vessel rests on a round, shallow tray with a tall arched handle made of paired strips, so the whole piece can be carried like a basket. The tray floor is also woven and lacquered in the same black and red scheme. The two parts separate: the woven vessel lifts out of the tray. The maker is unidentified.

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.
