Vintage Japanese Nest-Form Ikebana Basket (Su-ikebana Kago)
Vintage Japanese Nest-Form Ikebana Basket (Su-ikebana Kago)
Dimensions: 19.25” H x 17.75” W x 9” D
Condition: Shows minor patina consistent with age and use, adding to its character
Materials: Bamboo (susudake), wisteria vine
Technique: Hand-woven
Description:
Hand crafted and woven, the piece utilizes two distinct materials: bamboo strips for its body and wisteria vine for the structural base.
The organic, free-form construction mimics a bird's nest. In the art of Ikebana, the vessel is not merely a container but an integral part of the composition. As such, this basket stands as a significant sculptural object, representing both functional vessel and independent work of art.
