Vintage Japanese Ikebana Flower Basket / Vase (SKU 25D-319-2)

Showa-era bamboo ikebana basket with tall handle and elegant woven body

This vintage Japanese vase is in fact a finely woven hanakago, a bamboo flower basket traditionally used for ikebana. The tall, arching handle and slim rectangular body give it a graceful vertical presence, while the warm honey-brown patina speaks to decades of careful use and handling.

The body is worked in an intricate herringbone-style plait, framed by vertical bamboo strips and set on four small feet bound at the corners. A zigzag rim detail and original inner bamboo liner complete the piece, making it ideal for displaying seasonal branches or as a sculptural accent in a Showa-era inspired interior.

A refined choice for collectors of Japanese bamboo art and for anyone seeking an authentic vintage ikebana vase with timeless character.

 

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.
