About the Item

A finely crafted Japanese bamboo wall vase dating to the mid-20th century, traditionally designed to be mounted on the wall for the display of flowers. Such vessels were commonly used in Japanese interiors, particularly in alcoves, tea rooms, and private residences, where vertical presentation emphasized form, material, and negative space. The vase is constructed from hand-split bamboo strips, intricately woven into an elongated, sculptural form. The dynamic, layered weaving creates a sense of movement while maintaining structural balance. Over time, the bamboo has developed a rich, warm patina, highlighting the natural variations in color and texture. Bamboo wall vases of this type reflect the strong postwar revival of traditional craft techniques in Japan, often associated with the evolving aesthetics of ikebana and modern Japanese interior design. The piece successfully balances functionality with sculptural presence. Origin: Japan Period: Mid-20th century Material: Bamboo Technique: Hand-split and woven bamboo Function: Wall-mounted flower vase Condition: Good vintage condition with wear and patina consistent with age
