Bamboo Crafts for a Cool Summer

Bamboo has been lovingly cultivated across Japan for centuries. Light, strong, and naturally cooling to the touch, it brings a quiet elegance and a refreshing sense of calm, perfect for long, sun-drenched summer days.

From chopsticks and tea ceremony tools to breezy baskets and bento boxes, bamboo crafts shape many essentials of Japanese life, especially in warmer months when simplicity and breathability matter most.

Growing to full height in just three months and maturing in three years, Japanese bamboo is a fast-renewing natural resource—quietly echoing the fresh, fleeting rhythm of summer.
