Description
A tall woven bamboo ikebana hanakago (flower basket) circa first half of the 20th century (Taisho or Showa era) by Japanese bamboo master Maeda Chikubosai I (1872-1950). Hand-woven with bamboo and rattan and equipped with a copper lined bamboo inner vase, the basket is of a bucket form and was intricately constructed with compound lozenge plaiting and reinforced with alternate twining. The upper edge feature tightly woven bands with lozenge plaiting with vertical twisting twining. Arched bamboo handle was decorated with tied knots along its length. The base of the basket was incised with inscription Chikubōsai zoshi (竹房齋造之). It comes with a later wood storage box (tomobako) that was signed by the Japanese collector and dated in 2006.
Chikubosai I was one of the most important bamboo artists of the 20th century. He was from the Kansai Region and active in Sakai, Osaka prefecture. He was instructed by Wada Waichisai I ((1851-1901). -
