This is a deep colander made of Nemagari bamboo.

“Soba-Zaru” is famous in Nagano Prefecture, and this colander uses the same technique to create a deep colander.
It is useful to use around the sink and kitchen.

This page introduces two sizes of colanders, medium and large.

Bamboos of different ages are used for different parts of the basket, such as the first-year and second-year bamboo.

The quality (hardness, etc.) of the bamboo changes with the age of growth,
so the angle at which the strips are bent is taken into consideration
and the appropriate bamboo is used to weave this truly elaborate piece of work.

It can be used in the kitchen for draining water from noodles such as soba and udon,
draining water from vegetables, and boiling vegetables.

Or, it is recommended as a basket to hold fruits.

The sturdy Nemagari bamboo crafts are sure to be useful throughout your home.
Please check the sizes and choose the size you prefer.

<Nemagari Bamboo Crafts in Togakushi, Nagano Prefecture>

Bamboo crafting began in the early Edo period (1603-1867) as a means of sustenance for the people of the Togakushi Chūsha area.
From the Meiji period to the mid-Showa period(mid-19th century to mid-20th century),
as the sericulture industry flourished,
the demand for silkworm baskets and other products increased.

In order to protect this important resource,
members of the bamboo craft production cooperative take turns acting as “bamboo shoot guard”
during the spring bamboo shoot season to prevent overharvesting by people who want to use for food.

The surface of the bamboo is polished and split into four pieces, and the skin and body are separated to make strips.
The four most common types of bamboo crafts are
-Colanders(plates),
-Mushroom / fish basket,
-Dish drying basket,
-Winnowing basket.

The beauty and durability of the finished product, as well as the warmth unique to Nemagari bamboo,
make it a practical item that is widely used by the Japanese people even today,
and the color of the product can be enjoyed as it changes over time.
