These are square-shaped, shallow organizing baskets made of White bamboo. Shallow type, two sizes, small and large, are introduced.
The White bamboo is made from the Madake bamboo. The Madake bamboo is then roasted, boiled, or otherwise heat-treated, then dried in the sun to remove the oils and moisture from the bamboo and also to bleach its original green color, thus producing the White bamboo.
In fact, it is yellow in color, but in the world of Japanese bamboo crafts, this bamboo is called “White bamboo”.
Visually, White bamboo work is bright, fresh, and sophisticated. As a material, the process of removing oil and moisture tightens and strengthens the bamboo. The processing also has the advantage of reducing the risk of splinters and mold.
You can fold and store T-shirts, knitwear, coats, stoles, and other clothes in it. It will come in handy because there is little risk of snagging.
The rim of the basket is made of a slightly thicker and wider bamboo, which is fastened with rattan, wrapped at equal intervals.If you look closely at the inside, you will notice that the bottom section is whitish in color, but this section is made of rattan, not bamboo. The corners and bottom of a square basket may come in contact with other objects, so soft rattan is used to provide cushioning.This shows the consideration of the maker in using it as a practical product.There are occasional stains and dark spots.Please be assured that the makers have been selected and only problem-free products are used.What is shown in the photos is an example. Please note that none of them are defective.This is the bottom corner. Reinforcing bamboo (Chikara-dake) is threaded through both ends to reinforce the bottom of the basket. The part that touches the ground is wrapped with rattan to prevent damage to the floor when placed on it.
Both the small and large sizes are about the same depth of 10cm (3.94″). It is shallow for a basket of this size, but it has a good capacity.
The shallow basket also makes it convenient to distinguish at a glance what is contained.
This is small size.The small size is made in a slimmer shape.It has a slim shape that is easy to place on an open rack or countertop.It is also just the right width for storing folded face towels.For storage of books and discs.This is large size.The large size is shallow, but large enough in both width and depth.It looks like a great place to put all sorts of things. Seems to be easy to use as a clothing basket as well.Face towels can also be stored in two rows.
At first glance, it looks like a simple square basket, but it is a basket with ingenuity in every part. The creator’s flexible imagination and sense of style shine through.
There is also a “deep type” in the same series of White bamboo organizing baskets. Please take a look at them as well.

–Bamboo craftsmanship that transcends categories–
In the world of bamboo crafts, they are sometimes grouped into categories depending on what or who made them, such as “utilitarian,” “crafts,” “arts,” or “folk art”.
On the other hand, there is a couple who are working daily “Let’s create bamboo products with a new image in a broader sense”.
The husband was also a self-taught bamboo craftsman, but in order to further improve his skills, he decided to enter the “Oita prefectural Bamboo crafts training center” in Beppu City, Oita Prefecture. The wife also joined this school. After graduation, they both worked for several years at a factory in Oita Prefecture, where they continued to weave to order.
The works created by these people, which are based on the basic skills of doing a large number of pieces, are not simply the product of images and ideas. The materials to be used are determined according to the type of basket (or product) to be made. The color scheme and shape, and usability for today’s life. Each has its own considerations and shines in the right place at the right time, and the variety of “bamboo products” seems to have a relaxed and enjoyable quality.
