The beauty of the detailed handcrafting of Suruga Bamboo Basketry can be felt in this gem. The surface of the tray is made of bamboo weaving with a combination of star and hexagonal patterns, and the reverse side is made of very thin bamboo strips woven into a herringbone-like pattern.

It can be used at tea time with a plate to put sweets or fruits on, or displayed as an interior decoration.
It is a beautiful design that is hard to find anywhere else, making it a perfect gift.

Please wipe dust and dirt with a soft brush and a squeezed dish towel. Do not wash it in water or hot water. Use in a dry, well-ventilated place to enhance the natural luster unique to bamboo. 

Suruga Bamboo Basketry is a traditional bamboo craft with a history of over 400 years, made in the area around Shizuoka City, Shizuoka Prefecture. It was designated a national traditional craft in 1976.

A single craftsman uses their skills to assemble the bamboo strips one by one. The moist, smooth, and delicate curves create a calm and soft moment as a favorite daily tool and an interior decoration.
