According to records, bamboo products from Sado Island in Niigata have been shipped outside the island for more than 200 years.
Because high-quality bamboo suitable for craftwork grows there, bamboo making has long been active on the island.
It is said that many bamboo products were also loaded on the Kitamae-bune, the merchant ships that sailed along the Sea of Japan route connecting Osaka and Hokkaido.
Since thick bamboo does not grow in Hokkaido, bamboo sieves and baskets from Sado, where the Kitamae-bune called, were widely distributed there.

The bamboo products made on Sado Island are characterized by their plain, simple, and durable style.
Among them, this round and flat basket is called a “Bon-zaru.”


The round bon-zaru type comes in nine sizes,
from 22cm (8.66″) to 45cm (17.72″) in diameter, in increments of about 1.18″.

On this page, we introduce five sizes that are especially convenient for use as soba-zaru,
from the smallest 22cm (8.66″) up to 34cm (13.39″) in diameter.

Though simple, it is sturdily made, and can be called the standard among flat baskets.
With baskets made of natural materials, a size variation of a few centimeters is common,
but since this bon-zaru uses steel wire as the core of the rim, there is hardly any variation.
Also, its flat shape is not bulky, and several can be stacked for storage.


It goes well with all kinds of noodles—soba, somen, udon, or Chinese noodles.
You can also place rice balls or bread on it and enjoy using it like a plate.
It is also recommended to lay kitchen paper or Japanese paper and serve fried foods like karaage or tempura.
If oil gets on it, after use apply a little mild detergent,
scrub with a brush, rinse well with water, and dry thoroughly.
A versatile round bon-zaru that can be used both as a draining basket and as a plate.
Please choose your preferred size.
