Chikuseikan Leather Handle Bamboo Basket - New This beautiful bamboo basket was purchased about 1.5 years ago at spica in Beppu. It features a leather one-handle and a lovely design with glossy bamboo and exquisite weaving. After purchasing, it was used to store linens in my room as an interior decoration. It has never been used as a bag and is in new, unused condition. The last image shows a handle in a different color. The color deepens with use, making it a wonderful basket that can be used for a long time. Chikuseikan Leather Handle Basket Actual measurements: Approx. Width 34.5cm, Depth 17cm, Height 17cm, Height including handle 32cm Materials: Domestic madake bamboo, Nume leather (Tochigi Leather) Weight: 260g Country of Origin: Japan Purchase price: 25,410 yen Although new, please understand that this is a home-stored item before purchasing. Excerpt from the website: Chikuseikan is a bamboo craft studio created by Kazuyoshi Takami, a bamboo craftsman with over 40 years of experience, and his wife Ayako, who has 30 years of experience in bamboo. This hand-woven basket is made at Chikuseikan. The handle is a genuine leather handle, designed for greater functionality and to perfectly complement modern fashion coordination. Like their mori baskets, its presence is gentle and dignified from all angles – front, back, and sides. With the natural color of the Nume leather, you can enjoy the changes in the handle's color along with the bamboo's aging process. It can be used as a bread basket for trips to the bakery, as a flower vase, or for organizing and storing interior items. It is minimalist, simple, and has a refreshing impression. Its ability to make anything placed inside stand out is the true measure of a bamboo basket's versatility.
