This is a dish basket with a handle, made only from green bamboo and Tsudura-fuji vines.
In Kyushu, this type of dish basket has long been made in a traditional form. Yet when looking at one made by Mr. Kiriyama, it feels both nostalgic and at the same time fresh and modern.
Though it is a form that has existed for generations, when you look closely at the details, you can feel that it is unmistakably the work of Mr. Kiriyama.
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 hard enamel-like outer surface is removed, giving the bamboo a softer look and a glossy, enhanced beauty.
Over time, it gradually changes into a warm amber color, evenly and beautifully.
The handle is bound with moonseed vines, adding an accent.
The rim is finished in rolled-rim style, and its color will deepen beautifully with time.It also has raised feet, crafted from round bamboo, making use of the bamboo’s natural form.The base is finished in yotsume-ami. Its open weave provides ventilation, making it suitable for storing ceramics, bamboo, or wooden vessels.Above all, the handle is striking. Two bamboo strips are crossed to form it, and the flowing lines are truly elegant.Viewed from different angles, the basket reveals new expressions.The balance between basket and handle feels exquisite, almost like a golden ratio.Just by being there, it creates a scene—adding presence to any space.
It can hold your everyday tableware.
You may also use it for fruit, vegetables, or sweets.
It also makes a fine harvest basket for vegetables or herbs from the garden.
Over time, the bamboo turns a deep amber, gaining even more luster and presence as something newly reborn.
We hope you will take your time and enjoy using it.
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.
