This basket is woven with strips of green bamboo whose outer skin has been shaved thin.
Green bamboo refers to Madake bamboo freshly cut while still retaining its natural green color.
By shaving, the hard enamel-like outer surface is removed, giving the bamboo a softer look and a glossy, enhanced beauty.
The soft sheen that emerges carries calmness and dignity, and over time it gradually turns a clear, even amber.
On this page, we introduce the “Summer Basket” in the Small size.
Among Mr. Kiriyama’s tote series, the “Spring Basket” is a horizontal type, while the “Summer Basket” is characterized by its vertical shape.
As with the Spring Basket, the handles of the Summer Basket are densely wrapped with Tsudura-fuji vines, giving a soft and gentle feel when held.It is woven in the gozame-ami technique, with thin horizontal strips interlaced around sturdy vertical ribs.When placed on your lap on a train seat, it fits neatly without taking up extra space.It is just the right size for a smartphone, wallet, mini bottle, and a paperback book.It is well suited for outings when you wish to carry only a few things.Here, we have arranged flowers in the Summer Basket, with the Tsudura-fuji vines handle serving as an accent.
Not too large, not too small—it is sure to be useful for short shopping trips and casual outings.
With daily use, the bamboo gradually turns amber. You may find its color deepening over time, and its expression changing with each stage.
The Summer Basket combines presence with a gentle character. It can be enjoyed throughout the year.
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.
