This is a lunch box made from white bamboo.

In the past, smaller versions of this type were commonly used as lunch boxes for children in the Kyushu region.

Kyushu is known for producing high-quality Madake bamboo, and this lunch box is also made from white bamboo—Madake harvested in Kyushu and treated to lighten its color.

White bamboo is created by boiling fresh green Madake and drying it in the sun to remove oils and moisture, resulting in a pale finish.

The whitening process evens out the color, reduces the risk of insect damage, and tightens the bamboo fibers, making the material more durable.

This page features four larger sizes of this basket.
Starting with the “Medium” size shown at the bottom center of the photo,
you’ll see the “Large,” “Extra Large,” and “Large 2-tier” sizes arranged clockwise.

This lunch box consists of a lidded top and a basket base.

Woven bamboo containers like this are breathable and practical,
but today, very few artisans still produce them.

Rectangular baskets like this are generally referred to as Kakumono (literally, “square things”).
Many craftspeople who make Kakumono specialize exclusively in this form.

That’s because the techniques required are fundamentally different
from those used to make round or oval-shaped baskets, which are more common.

This weaving style is known as Hishigi-ami, a technique often seen in lunch baskets made from white bamboo in Kyushu.
Each part is prepared in advance—for example, some pieces are pre-bent—and then assembled carefully to form the basket.
The rim is also distinctive. Straight and sturdy bamboo is carefully bent to an almost right angle using heat.
Slightly thicker white bamboo is used for the rim, and the vertical strips and rim are secured with brass nails.
The tips of the nails are bent inward on the inside of the rim to prevent them from touching your hands, but please handle the basket with care just in case.
The base is made with wide strips and woven in the Ikada-zoko-ami style, known for its strength and durability.
Depending on the available materials at the time, the base may use either the outer skin or the inner side of the bamboo. The appearance may differ from the photos, but both types are equally functional. We will send you the version currently in stock at the time of your order. Thank you for your understanding.
The way the lid fits neatly onto the body of the basket is one of the defining qualities of Kakumono—and a clear display of the artisan’s skill. Opening and closing the lid becomes a quiet pleasure in itself.
The carefully prepared white bamboo is woven in a straight, rhythmic pattern, creating a sense of calm just by looking at it.

Rather than “woven craft,” this could almost be called assembled bamboo work—
the construction method is truly different from most other baskets.

It is a basket unlike any other.

The way the bamboo strips are precisely joined and composed in this lunch box
evokes a solid, structured beauty—something quite distinct from the softness of other woven baskets.

Now, let us introduce each size. This is the Medium size.
Although it’s the smallest among the four on this page, it offers a surprisingly generous capacity.
It can hold a bento lunch for one person with a hearty appetite or a light meal for two.
In the photo, it contains four rice balls, four side dishes (fried chicken, tamagoyaki, sautéed broccoli and potatoes with bacon, and pickled vegetables), plus four slices of orange.
This is the Large size, which is a single-tier type.
It’s large enough to fit an A5-sized sheet of paper perfectly.
This size was created in response to many customer requests. Its width and depth are the same as the basket portion of the “Three-tier Handled Lunch Basket” featured on another page (though the height differs).
Like the Medium size, it holds about enough for two people, but with a bit more room—making it suitable for a full meal for two adults.
Next is the Extra Large size.
It’s sized to fit a B5 sheet of paper perfectly.
It can hold enough for two to three people. It’s easy to imagine filling it with rice balls or sandwiches for a family outing.
And finally, here is the Large 2-tier type. This version wasn’t originally available, but was created in response to customer requests.
You can pack side dishes in the upper tier and rice balls in the lower one—with enough room for three to four people to enjoy.
In addition to being used for meals, it can also be used to store amenities, or serve as a medicine box or sewing kit.

Perfect for both rice and sandwiches.

Bamboo baskets offer gentle breathability, which helps prevent moisture buildup.
If you’re packing moist side dishes, using divider cups can help keep things tidy.
(Please note that if the box is tilted, any excess moisture may leak out.)

Lining the inside of the basket with cooking paper or waxed paper before arranging your food
helps keep the basket clean and makes cleanup easier.

After use, rinse the basket with water using a tawashi brush or similar scrubber,
shake off excess water, remove the lid, and let everything dry thoroughly.

If you’ve used liners or paper and the basket remains clean, washing may not be necessary.
However, moisture may still be trapped inside,
so be sure to open the lid and allow it to air-dry completely.

If oil has transferred to the basket—such as from fried foods—
you can use a small amount of mild detergent.
Just be sure to rinse thoroughly to remove any soap residue.

It also makes a great storage box for remote controls—keeping out dust while adding charm to your space.

With the lid closed, it has a clean, tidy appearance.
The fresh, natural look of white bamboo adds a gentle accent to any room as part of your interior décor.

Please choose the type that best suits your needs.

Bamboo Craft in Kagoshima

As you drive through Kagoshima Prefecture,
you’ll come across an astonishing number of bamboo groves—so many that it’s almost overwhelming.
Kagoshima is one of Japan’s leading regions in terms of bamboo forest area.
It truly is a “bamboo kingdom.”

Roughly half of these forests are filled with Moso bamboo,
known for its thick, powerful stalks that seem to radiate vitality.
Because Moso bamboo is dense and firm, it takes great effort to split it into fine strips.
For that reason, it’s often used to make utensils such as spatulas, spoons, and forks.

On the other hand, baskets like the ones shown here—
traditionally used for bento or tofu—as well as strainers and other woven items,
are usually made from Madake bamboo.

Compared to Moso, Madake has thinner walls, making it easier to produce long,
slender strips of bamboo for weaving.

Bamboo craft has long been practiced in Kagoshima.
Although the number of people involved in the craft has declined in recent years,
it still has more enthusiasts than in many other regions.
Group activities and exhibitions are held regularly, showing that the culture remains vibrant.

Whether amateur or professional,
many people in the area continue to create baskets of impressive quality and craftsmanship.

Please note:
This item ships from Japan.
As the buyer, you are responsible for any import duties, customs fees, or local taxes that may be charged in your country.
These costs are not included in the item price or shipping cost.
