竹真斉 chikushinsai

This elegant signed bamboo flower basket with original bamboo insert tube is attributed to Chikushinsai, a Japanese bamboo craftsman known for creating refined tea ceremony and ikebana utensils.

The basket features an expressive openwork weaving technique combining dynamic diagonal bamboo strips with tightly constructed base plaiting. The form gently rises in an organic, undulating silhouette, demonstrating both structural integrity and artistic movement. The arched handle is firmly bound and balanced, adding vertical elegance suitable for tokonoma display.

The included bamboo cylinder (otoshi) allows the basket to function as a flower container. The interior cross support structure provides stability for floral arrangements. The natural patina, subtle color variation, and aged bamboo texture enhance its wabi-inspired aesthetic, making it ideal for tea room display or contemporary interior settings.

The artist’s signature “竹真斉” is present, confirming authorship.

A refined and collectible example of Japanese bamboo artistry suitable for both traditional and modern spaces.
