Antique Large Japanese Bamboo Kago Tray — 1920s, Taisho Era
An Embrace of Craftsmanship, Where Utility Becomes Art

This magnificent antique Japanese kago tray—woven with meticulous care during the Taisho era—embodies the soul of traditional craftsmanship. Formed from supple, richly toned bamboo, its broad, flat surface and gently rising edges evoke both strength and serenity. Each strip is handwoven into a seamless herringbone pattern, enhanced with warm reddish-brown hues that whisper of age, use, and the hands that shaped it.

More than a container, this kago is a vessel of daily rituals—once used to hold letters, textiles, or cherished objects in a refined Japanese home. Today, it serves beautifully as a table centerpiece, a display tray, or a quiet reminder of a slower, more mindful rhythm of life.
