On this page, we introduce two types of Black Bamboo with branches: the slender “Nagaho” and the slightly thicker “Futo-Nagaho.”
Please choose the type that best suits your intended use and preference.
Black Bamboo is a bamboo native to China and belongs to the same group as Hachiku bamboo. It is thinner than Madake bamboo, which is often used for basket making, and is characterized by its dark brown to black outer surface.This is a Black Bamboo shoot. The bamboo sheath covering the outside is dark brown to black.However, when the bamboo culms first emerge above the ground, they are green, just like fresh green bamboo.Over the course of about one to two years, the color gradually changes to dark brown to black. This black color is now thought to come from a plant-produced pigment similar to melanin.The color also varies depending on the amount of sunlight and the environment in which the bamboo grows, giving each piece its own unique appearance.Black Bamboo harvested from autumn through winter is stored in the mountains while it dries. The selection and processing then begin.Both Nagaho and Futo-Nagaho are made from slender Black Bamboo that has branches and is in its second year of growth or later. Nagaho is approximately 9–12 mm (0.35–0.47″) in diameter, while Futo-Nagaho is approximately 15 mm (0.59″) or more in diameter.These are normally delivered in 18 kg (39.68 lb) bundles. The bundle is tightly packed with plenty of Black Bamboo.The bamboo gradually becomes thinner from the base toward the tip.The fine branching that extends all the way to the tip gives a sense of both the strength and delicacy characteristic of bamboo.This is the cut end at the base. Unlike Black Bamboo sold as whole poles, Nagaho is measured from the tip of the bamboo and finished by cutting the base at a point approximately 220 cm (86.61″) from the tip.This item is intended mainly for outdoor use, such as for bamboo fences. Depending on the condition of the material, there may be insect holes or similar marks. These are not defects. Please be aware of this before placing your order.
The combination of whole bamboo poles and slender branches gives bamboo fences and similar structures a softer appearance.
This is how Nagaho is packaged for delivery. Two wooden poles with wire attached are crossed, and the leverage they create is used to tighten the bundle securely.Once the bundle is tightly compressed, a rope is wrapped around it, and it is finished by tying the rope by hand.By the time the wooden poles reach the ground, the bundle is tightly compressed.Nagaho is bundled quickly and skillfully, with plenty of force.Even Black Bamboo pieces that are taller than a person are skillfully gathered together into a single bundle in this way.As this item is intended for outdoor use, the bases of the bamboo will be delivered in this condition.The tips will also be delivered slightly protruding, as shown here.Overall, it will be delivered packaged approximately as shown here.
Please watch the video to see two people wrapping Nagaho together using wooden poles. [Music will play]
If you would like Black Bamboo cut to a length other than the sizes listed above, or would like to order a smaller or larger quantity, please contact us through our custom order page.
As Black Bamboo is a natural material, each piece varies in color and pattern. You cannot choose the depth of the black color, the amount of brown coloring, or mottled patterns.
Also, as bamboo gradually becomes thinner from the base toward the tip, the diameter varies even within a single piece.
Please be aware that these are all characteristics of a natural material.
Please choose between “Nagaho” and “Futo-Nagaho” according to your intended use and preference.
*Please note that this item cannot be delivered to residential addresses. Delivery is available only to businesses, such as companies, stores, and other business locations.
When placing your order, please be sure to enter a company name, store name, business name, or similar information for the delivery address.

Black Bamboo Passed Down in Wakayama
In Wakayama, Black Bamboo has been valued as a local specialty for more than 100 years, since the Meiji period.
Preparing Black Bamboo for use as a material involves many steps. The process begins with going into the mountains to select, harvest, and transport the bamboo, followed by removing the branches and branch stubs, cutting the bamboo to the required length, removing the oil using heat, and straightening any bends.
The way the flame is applied and the heating time are adjusted according to the condition of each piece of bamboo, and the bamboo is straightened while it is still soft.
This work has been passed down through many years of accumulated experience and skill.
However, today, there are very few craftspeople who specialize in processing Black Bamboo.
In recent years, Hachiku bamboo, which belongs to the same group as Black Bamboo, has been flowering and dying off in many parts of Japan, and Black Bamboo has also been affected.
Under these circumstances, efforts are also underway to plant and grow new Black Bamboo on abandoned farmland, so that Black Bamboo can be passed on to future generations.
The Black Bamboo introduced here is shipped directly from a bamboo supplier in Wakayama that has handled Black Bamboo for more than 100 years and continues to carry on the techniques used to process it.
Today, many Black Bamboo products are imported, and Japanese Black Bamboo has become more difficult to obtain than it once was.
We hope you will find a place in your everyday life for this Japanese Black Bamboo, carefully finished piece by piece.
