This basket, named the “Serving Basket,” is made from green bamboo and Tsudura-fuji vines.
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. It also adds a natural sheen, 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 finished with bindings of Tsudura-fuji vines, adding a graceful accent.
Its length is unusually long—dimensions rarely seen in today’s bamboo craft.
A shallow yet long basket, it has a form and size that are quite uncommon.
As its name suggests, this basket was made for “serving.” Imagine it not only at home, but also in restaurants, inns, or hotels— how wonderful it would be to have dishes brought to the table in such a basket.
For those who practice ikebana, it could also serve as a striking flower vessel unlike any other. Even boldly arranged large branches would harmonize beautifully in this basket.
At a camp or barbecue, it could carry food and drinks, and then serve directly as a makeshift table.
Over time, the bamboo gradually turns amber, letting you enjoy the beauty of its aging. A basket with eye-catching proportions, it will surely bring delight wherever it is placed.
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.
