Material: Bamboo, paint
Style: Bali, Indonesia
Size: Height 18 cm, Length 23 cm, Width 23 cm (top), Length 30 cm, Width 30 cm (bottom)
Order Number: MHSABOB1

These baskets are called keben and are used for carrying small offerings to temple ceremonies. Being used for religious purposes they are regarded as alus or refined, excellent quality, nicely finished.

The best and harder part of the leaf is always used – usually this is the upper, shiny part. The strips are normally thinner than for an ordinary basket – about 2 – 3 millimeters wide. This makes them strong. They are never more than about 30 cm x 30 cm. The weaving is tight.

The sides usually slope in, so that a lid can be put on top. Sometimes the top of the lid has a decoration in the centre.

There is a hole in the bottom corner. Kamasan style paintings on the sides and bottom.

60-70 years.

Please ask for the price (or make an offer).

]]> Antique Burmese Basket 4                             SOLD

Material: Rattan, metal handles, wood, lacquer
Style: Inle Lake, Shan State, Burma
Size: Height 35 cm, Diameter 45 cm
Order Number: MHSABBL4

The body is very fine and delicate basketry in a fancy diamond pattern called kyudayan gwet in Burmese.  The rim and foot are lacquered black. Although rare today, juxtaposing smooth lacquered surfaces with bare basketry is an old Burmese decorative technique. It was popular for large bamboo matting for the walls of houses.

After the First Anglo-Burmese War (1823–1826), Major Henry Burney was stationed at Ava as the British Resident of the East India Company at the Burmese Court of King Bagyidaw from 1829 to 1837. In May 1832 he wrote an essay ‘Some Account of the Lacquered or Japanned Ware of Ava’ in the Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal. He considered Shan boxes superior to those made in Bagan.

There is a similar example of basketry in Burma and the Art of Lacquer, Ralph Isaacs and T. Richard Blurton, River Books, 2000, page 208.

Early – mid 20th century.
