About the Item

A lovely antique Japanese hanging basket woven from thin bamboo stripes, circa late 19th to early 20th century (toward the end of Meiji to Taisho period). The basket was constructed in a classic baluster vase form with tight weaves that form distinct pattern in sections. It seems that the artist was trying to show off his mastery in various techniques. From top to the bottom, the techniques consist of Mat plaiting, small pine needle plaiting, large plover plaiting, a transitional band of twill plaiting, medium variation of Pine Needle, small plover, Mat, Large Pine Needle and finally Mat again. The artist did impressively demonstrate his skill as the transition appears seamless and the overall pattern is interesting, diverse but also harmonious. The base of the ikebana was quite unusual as well. We haven't seen a similar finish. A bronze ring with a chrysanthemum plate was attached to the ikebana and it was used to hang on the wall. Thers is a historical repair toward the base of the basket, carefully and skillfully done, not with bamboo but with some sort of fiber. Clearly, such effort would have only be made for a cherished piece. Although the work is unsigned, the workmanship clearly, was very sophisticated.

Large Antique Japanese Bamboo Flower Basket Hahakago in Chinese Taste

Located in Atlanta, GA

This Japanese woven bamboo flower basket (Hanakago) of large size and impressive presence was constructed in a classic Chinese form derived from the shape of porcelain vase known as "HaiTangZun" (Begonia Vase). Known as karamono (objects in Chinese style), It features a baluster body, a concave neck opening to an everted wide rim, handles on the sides, and a slightly flaring foot. This particular form became popular during the reign of Qing emperor Yongzheng (1723–1735 AD). Although the basket was inspired by the Chinese form, its construction was entirely Japanese with a particular touch on the handles, two lateral ridge enforcements and a creative addition of the foot support. Impressive in size, the basket was made during late Meiji period (end of 19th-early 20th century) as an ikebana container...
