In Japan, even simple, daily-use objects are the result of honed skill and deep knowledge of material. Ikkanbari baskets are the perfect example. Seemingly modest tasks, such as evenly splitting bamboo for weaving or layering washi for durability, demand great levels of accuracy. They can only be achieved through years of dedicated practice. Launched as part our of Spring Series, these antique-style baskets easily slot into contemporary life while bringing a rich craft tradition into your home.
