This lidded basket is woven with strips of green bamboo.
Made only from bamboo and Tsudura-fuji vines, it is introduced here as the “Tea Utensil Basket.”
Green bamboo refers to Madake bamboo freshly cut while still retaining its natural green color. This basket is woven with strips of green bamboo whose outer skin has been shaved thin.
By shaving the outer skin, the hard enamel-like layer is removed, giving the surface a softer appearance, while adding luster and enhancing its beauty.
Another characteristic is the way it gradually changes over time, turning evenly into a warm amber color.
The rim and handle are bound with Tsudura-fuji vines, which becomes a striking accent of the basket.
It was created with the idea of carrying tea utensils.
The entire basket is woven carefully and with strength.Wherever you touch, the surface is so smooth that you might forget bamboo can splinter.The rim is crafted from wide bamboo strips that have been finely split, with Tsudura-fuji vines adding an accent.The lid is made to fit perfectly with the body, and it can also serve as an extra tray when used as a two-tier piece.The handle feels smooth and gentle in the hand—so pleasant that it brings joy whenever you touch it.The bottom of the body is tightly woven, preventing items from falling through.Its presence feels so refined that one might forget it is made simply from natural bamboo and vine.You can use it with the lid on,or remove the lid and enjoy it as a handbag, a flower basket, or a storage piece, depending on the occasion.The lid itself works well as an independent basket.It can hold everyday items such as glasses or cloths, serve as a tray for condiments,or even substitute for a dish or tray.
It is just the right size for storing tea utensils, and many people who practice tea actually choose this basket.
Of course, the use is free, so you may change how you use it depending on mood or occasion.
Not too large, not too small—just the right size. Its shape also makes it easy to carry close to the body, which is a pleasing point.
Surely it will find a role in many scenes of daily life.
Please note that the color of green bamboo may vary depending on when it was harvested and the condition of the material. Some pieces may have a deeper green tone, while others may appear lighter or slightly yellowish. We kindly ask for your understanding that returns cannot be accepted for this reason.
About the Bamboo Baskets by Hiromi Kiriyama
Each basket begins with carefully selected Green Bamboo or Tsudura-fuji vines. From harvesting and preparing the materials to weaving the basket itself, every step is approached with attentiveness and precision.
Mr. Kiriyama creates baskets with a clear sense of proportion and balance, while always considering how the piece will fit naturally into everyday life.
These finely crafted baskets, made from polished Green Bamboo and Tsudura-fuji, combine a quiet strength with refined design.
Their finish reflects the high level of skill unique to his workshop. The variety of sizes and shapes has also evolved by listening to the voices of those who use them.
One of the pleasures of these baskets is watching their fresh green gradually deepen into a warm amber hue over time.
Beyond their exceptional quality, each piece is designed to be practical. They are baskets meant to accompany daily life for many years to come.
