Made out of locally grown bamboo from Sadogashima in Niigata Prefecture, the Shichinari bamboo basket features sophisticated handiwork in addition to sturdy functionality.

Shichinari literally translates to “seven uses,” but this basket can easily be used in much more than just 7 ways! Not only perfect for traditional farm work or fishing, use this basket to carry fresh fruits and vegetables, potted plants, or to store hand towels or small accessories in.

If you thread a line through the seams at the top edges, you can wear it as a hip basket and it becomes a handy tool for gardening or outdoor activities.

Since this item is made of a natural material and handcrafted quality, there may be variations of colour and form, as well as some remaining cracks or splinters. These are not defects, but a natural characteristic of the material. Be sure to store bamboo items with care in order to avoid dryness or mold.
