This product was created with the idea that craftsmen could use the limited amount of Nemagari bamboo to create a tool that is in tune with the modern age. The woven pattern is simple, not intricate, and was designed to be easy for any craftsman to make.
Bamboos of different ages are used for different parts of the basket, such as the first-year and second-year bamboo.
The quality (hardness, etc.) of the bamboo changes with the age of growth, so the angle at which the strips are bent is taken into consideration and the appropriate bamboo is used to weave this truly elaborate piece of work.
The weaving is beautiful. It is all made of Nemagari bamboo and finished tightly.
Splinters of bamboo may occur. Smaller pieces will naturally fall off and disappear. If you are concerned, you can use scissors or nippers to remove the root of the splinters as you would remove frayed clothing.
This product must be dripped using a paper filter.
When dripping, place the basket on a heat-resistant glass coffee server and drip the coffee without holding the basket by hand.
The taste is a matter of personal preference, but please enjoy the unique aroma of Nemagari bamboo that is slightly fragrant when you drip the coffee.
<Nemagari Bamboo Crafts in Togakushi, Nagano Prefecture>
Bamboo crafting began in the early Edo period (1603-1867) as a means of sustenance for the people of the Togakushi Chūsha area. From the Meiji period to the mid-Showa period(mid-19th century to mid-20th century), as the sericulture industry flourished, the demand for silkworm baskets and other products increased.
In order to protect this important resource, members of the bamboo craft production cooperative take turns acting as “bamboo shoot guard” during the spring bamboo shoot season to prevent overharvesting by people who want to use for food.
The surface of the bamboo is polished and split into four pieces, and the skin and body are separated to make strips. The four most common types of bamboo crafts are -Colanders(plates), -Mushroom / fish basket, -Dish drying basket, -Winnowing basket.
The beauty and durability of the finished product, as well as the warmth unique to Nemagari bamboo, make it a practical item that is widely used by the Japanese people even today, and the color of the product can be enjoyed as it changes over time.
