Nanpu Kougei
Nanpu Kougei is a maker of bamboo crafts based in Hiji Town, Oita Prefecture—a place of lush greenery and stretches of coastline. The company carries forward the region’s deep connection to this traditional material through time-honored techniques, as they aim to establish Oita as a leading name in Japan’s bamboo industry.
Using only locally sourced bamboo, Nanpu Kougei creates functional items such as bento boxes and strainer trays—each one carefully handwoven to suit everyday use.
