Antique Japanese Ikabana Flower Bamboo Basket (SKU 25D-471-1)

Slender Taisho-era bamboo ikebana basket with removable black bamboo liner

This antique Japanese flower basket is woven in an elegant, tapering silhouette from warm, patinated bamboo strips, cinched at the waist with a finely braided band. The open-slat construction allows light to pass through the structure, giving seasonal arrangements a sense of air and movement prized in traditional ikebana.

A separate, glossy black bamboo cylinder serves as an inner water container, making the piece practical for fresh flower display while preserving the integrity of the outer basket. Subtle wear and color variation in the bamboo speak to its Taisho-period origins and add depth and character, making this a refined accent for a tokonoma alcove or contemporary interior.

A graceful choice for collectors of Japanese antiques and for refined ikebana practice alike.

 

As part of our mission to preserve and share Japanese craftsmanship, we offer antiques that were made not just to be admired, but to be used. These pieces were crafted for everyday life, and we honor their purpose by ensuring they can continue to be enjoyed and lived with today.

We use professional studio lighting to highlight the natural character of the wood. As a result, the tone may appear slightly warmer than under natural daylight.

All vintage and antique items are sold as-is. Each piece may exhibit signs of age, including scratches, wear, or minor imperfections. These are not considered defects but natural evidence of the item’s authenticity and age.
