Description: Vintage Large 8”Ikebana Vase.EUCA gorgeous Ikebana with beautiful colors!The vessels used in ikebana are designed to maximize the life of the flowers and allow oxygen to reach the water and plants. They tend to be soft pastel shades and bronzes to enhance the beauty of the plants. Bamboo makes a charming vase, but solid bamboo is often not practical in some countries outside of Japan where the vases originate because of climate, so vases may be lined with porcelain or ceramic.About the art form: Shanghai Handicrafts are a rich traditional Chinese art that became available in American markets starting as trade between the two countries opened in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Each piece is hand-woven from wicker. Carved wood, stitching, and eyes bring the character to these pieces. High quality examples of Shanghai Handicrafts artisan work are exceedingly rare to find on the open market and some of the pieces that are for sale here are the only examples of their work available. These pieces are impossible to date accurately, but were made from 1930-1980 based on their tags and styles. Some still bear the red tag on the bottom.About the style: Wicker has continued to grow in popularity as a design trend for the last several years, seeing a revival in popularity as the 2020s begin. It recalls a vintage, bohemian, eco organic, warm atmosphere. Wicker accents bring warmth and depth to any room. Use them to add a cozy feeling to a living space or to warm up an office space. Interior decorators can creatively utilize these boxes to bring whimsy, history, conversational value, and a unique feel to their spaces. Wicker can also be added to an industrial space for a sharp contrast to create interesting and modern shapes.Did you know? Rattan is the material used in wicker weaving, while wicker is the actual style and art?
