Signed Maeda Chikubosai II Japanese Flower Basket

In the original signed box, this Chikubosai II bamboo flower basket is the ultimate wabisabi aesthetic both Chikubosai and his father and mentor Chikubosai I always strove for. Simple elegance at its best. Maeda Chikubosai II was born 1917 and died recently in 2003. He is featured in the book 'Bamboo Masterworks:Japanese Baskets from the Lloyd Cotsen Collection' p. 181. In 1995 he was named a Living National Treasure for the bamboo crafts. His baskets have a contemporary feel in the use of thin round bamboo stips to create geometrical designs. c.1960. (9" diameter x 7") (23cm diameter x 18cm). EMS Shipping/Insurance to USA or Western Europe $95.
