    My grandparents have had these two as umbrella stands for at least 40 years, I believe they got them when my grandfather was stationed in Japan in the early 60s. We're considering keeping them, but we're curious about them. Have these become a collectible now? We seem to have seen that somewhere, but not sure.
    Anyway, aren't they cool?

    That was some big bamboo ! I wonder if these might not be Vietnamese? They look very much like my moms jewelry box dad bought her in the 60s while he was over there.

    I'm thinking that too, these have kinda gotten trendy..

    Isn't it just! Big ole plant right there. It is marked china in faded letters on the bottom, unless that's an import mark of some sort.
