Crafted from young bamboo culms harvested in Oita Prefecture, this naturally hued bamboo basket undergoes over ten meticulous steps—from initial cutting to the final, artful weave—yielding a piece that marries natural warmth with refined elegance. The ultra-fine bamboo slivers are woven with remarkable precision, their interlacing gaps tapering seamlessly from top to bottom. The result is a composition of effortless harmony.

The form is inspired by the teppatsu—the black iron bowl Buddhist monks carry during alms rounds—imbuing the piece with a timeless, classical elegance. In Japanese culture, bamboo’s rapid, upright growth symbolizes prosperity. Handcrafted from natural bamboo strips that exude a warm, tactile charm—each edge gently rounded for comfort—this piece lets light filter through its weave, casting dappled shadows that bring organic elegance to your table.

Beyond its use as a basket for fruits or bread, this versatile piece also doubles as an elegant tray, seamlessly pairing with an array of sauce plates and kobachi small bowls.
