Title	Yumyosai (1853-1917) favored Kamo Gawa basket for flowers
Description	The idea for the design of this basket came from a very old practice of controlling the flow of water in the Kamo River that flows through Kyoto by wrapping large stones in bamboo and placing them strategically. The bamboo tube inside the original vase was sesame bamboo (gomadake) flecked with tiny black spots. Baskets are used for flowers only in the furo season, May-October.
