This handheld basket is woven using the bark of sawagurumi (Japanese walnut).
The bark of walnut trees is harvested at its peak from spring through the rainy season, when the material is rich with moisture.
Sawagurumi, as its name suggests, is a species of walnut that grows naturally along mountain streams and shallow valleys.
Unlike yamagurumi, which grows in the mountains, the nuts of sawagurumi are not used for food. Instead, the tree has the characteristic of letting its seeds travel downstream, carried away by the flow of nearby streams.
Here, we would like to introduce a handheld basket crafted from this walnut bark.
This basket bag highlights the bright tones of the outer bark and lets you fully enjoy the natural texture of the material.
In autumn and winter, and even on chilly spring mornings and evenings, it pairs beautifully with a stole or muffler.
This sawagurumi basket is one you can enjoy throughout the year.
The materials are carefully prepared, so there is no roughness — the surface feels smooth, clean, and pleasantly light to the touch.
Each walnut-bark strip has its own subtle tone and texture, and together they give the basket a sense of depth and character.
Bring the basket close and you can enjoy the rich, natural aroma of walnut.
And the more you gently run your hand over the surface, the more luster the basket develops as it absorbs the natural oils from your skin.
Because of its generous size, it can also be used indoors as a storage basket.
As it stays close in your daily life, it will surely become a piece you grow deeply fond of.
Original and uniquely crafted barkwork from Iwate.
In this region blessed with abundant nature, these artisans create their work using materials such as walnut bark and wild grapevine.
Their pieces are rich in variety—both in design and in proportion—and always bring a sense of delight when we encounter them.
They walk the mountains of Iwate themselves, selecting and harvesting only the finest materials.
The care they put into preparing each piece of bark, and the time they devote before the weaving even begins, set their work apart.
From their distinctive approach to design to the way each basket is brought to life, their craft is truly unlike any other.
