This is a shallow, round basket handwoven from fresh green bamboo.
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.
On this page, we introduce a Vegetable Basket with handles on both sides and a wide opening.
The base is woven in a style called kiku-zoko, where broad bamboo strips form the vertical frame and thin strips radiate outward.It uses a dense weave, similar to those seen in soba strainers, so the contents will not slip through.The rim is bound with Tsudura-fuji vines.The rim is finished with bamboo processed through masawari, with the Tsudura-fuji vines adding a subtle accent.On each side of the rim, there are handles crafted from bamboo strips.If too much weight is placed on the rim, it can be damaged. With these handles, the basket is easier to carry and the rim is spared from direct strain.The handles are modest and simple, yet their presence makes a remarkable difference.It is just the right size for storing vegetables, fruits, or other ingredients.Perfect for picking herbs or vegetables from your home garden.
You can use it for harvesting or keeping herbs, vegetables, and fruits.
With its discreet handles, you can carry it with ease, hang it for storage, and enjoy many more ways to use 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.
