This quaint basket originated in Japan within the mid 20th century. It was handwoven from bamboo using a traditional Japanese technique known as takeami. The style showcases an okimono kago design, which can be seen on the bottom where the 5 bamboo pieces meet, forming a star shape. This specific basket has some Japanese calligraphy on the side. Unfortunately we cannot translate it, but we assume its a label for what was stored inside or perhaps a makers mark. Originally, this basket would have been used to store items around the home. Nowadays, it could be used for a similar purpose or as interesting wall decor!
The dimensions are as follows: H - 28.5cm, W - 48cm, D - 48cm.
