Nuvola Tall Bamboo Bag

Beppu bamboo crafts are made in the Japanese city of Beppu, in Oita Prefecture, known as the number one producer of madake, or Japanese timber bamboo. Used predominately for knitting and braiding, madake forms the heart of Beppu bamboo ware, a governmentally designated traditional craft of Oita Prefecture. High-quality madake is commonly used for a variety of baskets, made through a complex four-step process, seasoning the bamboo, processing, knitting and braiding, and finally finishing. The complex techniques employed in the process play a critical role in the final design of each product.

Beppu Bamboo Japan is a project that incorporates traditional techniques of Beppu bamboo work and modern sensibility. This results in an object with endless possibilities created by rethinking a traditional shape of a basket and collaborating with different materials.
