Vintage Japanese Bamboo Ikebana Flower Basket/Vase - Dark Red-Brown Lacquered

USD 79.99

Condition: In good vintage condition, with some scratches and stains on the surface. The long handle is slightly distorted/warped, and there are a couple of drips on it from the lacquer applied to the surface (See close-up photos). There is a fine, hairline crack running vertically on the body, which appears to have existed before the item was lacquered, judging by how the lacquer has seeped into the crack, but it is not deep enough to penetrate the interior. If you plan to use the inside of the bamboo to hold water directly instead of using something that would serve as an inner water tray, it is recommended to repaint the interior for waterproofing and to prevent water from seeping into the bamboo. Please examine all the photos closely as they are part of the description. ALL PHOTOS ARE OF THE ITEMS THAT YOU WILL ACTUALLY RECEIVE.
