In the Iwadeyama area of Osaki City—about 50 kilometers north of Sendai in Miyagi Prefecture—basket making is said to have begun during the Edo period as side work for samurai households.
Using naturally growing shinodake, a supple bamboo grass native to the region, people crafted baskets and strainers as everyday tools or for professional use, adapting the shapes to suit each purpose.
At its peak, more than 80 types of baskets and strainers were made in this region. However, with the passing of time, both the variety and production volume have significantly declined.
Today, traditional baskets made entirely from shinodake—without using madake bamboo for reinforcement—are crafted only by a small number of elderly artisans.
Miyagi’s shinodake craft is especially known for being remarkably lightweight and soft to the touch, making it a favorite for use in and around the kitchen in daily life.
This basket is one of those traditionally made with shinodake,
and features a striking hexagonal weave pattern arranged in a regular, geometric layout.
For example, if you order a Medium size, you may receive a piece with a diameter of around 23 cm, or another closer to 26 cm, depending on the timing. Height may also vary: in some cases, a Medium basket may be shallower than a Small, while in other cases, it may be deeper than a Large.
In return, we are pleased to offer these baskets at an accessible price. We hope you will enjoy them with a generous spirit.
Let us now introduce the three sizes, one by one.
Compared to other types of bamboo craft, baskets made from shinodake in Miyagi Prefecture use softer materials and finer strips of bamboo.
These baskets are not designed for carrying heavy loads, so please take extra care when using them to hold fruits or other items that become heavy when wet.
That said, they are perfect for everyday use—such as rinsing vegetables like lettuce or cabbage, cleaning shellfish like clams or shijimi, or gently washing fruits like strawberries and grapes.
This open-weave basket lets you fully enjoy the lightness and supple texture of shinodake bamboo.
After use, we recommend hanging it to dry with an S-hook or similar method.
Some people use it as a fruit basket or as a tray for inverted cups,
with the understanding that it is meant to stay in place rather than be carried around with items inside.
It’s well suited for daily use in the kitchen—for draining, rinsing, or other multipurpose needs.
Please feel free to choose the size that best fits your lifestyle.
