Hanakago - Ikebana Basket
CHF 180.00


Japanese ikebana basket with side loop

Sculptural art baskets have been used as a beautiful addition to flower arrangements since the beginnings of ikebana over 500 years ago. The baskets are woven by hand from bamboo.

Baskets are traditionally used during the summer and fall months, especially for arrangements that embody a natural, carefree style.

Ikebana or Ka-do (the way of flowers) is a traditional Japanese art of flower arranging. Unlike Western floral art, Ikebana is not just about the beauty of the flowers and the harmony of the colors. This art is about accentuating the vase, stems, leaves and branches as much as the flower itself. The structure of the flower arrangement is based on three symbols: heaven, earth and humanity.
