This type of bucket is frequently used to hold magazines or as a small side table by adding a round glass top. It is truly a love ...click for details

The two types of “cluster” designs show a chrysanthemum-like floral motif and “I-gata”, well-crib, motif in center respectively. The placement of the patterns is somewhat irregular and it emphasizes the unique “movement” of overall impression. The backing fabric is a solid indigo kasu ...click for details
