Japanese bamboo baskets are the usual Japanese blend of beauty and craftsmanship with utilitarianism. This book discusses the history and craft of basketmaking, and shows the end result as used in ikebana, the art of flower-arrangement. The photographs are stunning.
Thoughtful selection but reproduction quality (in darker images) is poor.
