Tanabe Chikuunsai I is one of the foremost hanakago bamboo basket makers of the early 20th C. The collection of the Metropolitan Museum in New York holds three hanakago of this prominent member of literati artistic circles, a social network he used to advance recognition of bamboo craftsmanship. This basket, "Kofuku-ji" is named after one of the seven important Buddhist temples in Nara. Kofuku-ji was especially renowned for its Rokuso-an, or Six Window Hut, and considered one of the San-meiseki (Three Famous Tearooms).
