Profile

In Kurashiki, Okayama Prefecture — once a major production center for igusa (soft rush used for tatami) — we handcraft ikago baskets by twisting together short igusa strands that are unsuitable for tatami. Originally made as shopping baskets for use in postwar black markets, these ikago embody the ingenuity and beauty of everyday craft.

Gift Collection

巨人のための鍋敷き

Title

Pot stand

巨人のための鍋敷き、で作り始めたわけではありませんが、大きな鍋を置いても、座っても、壺を置いてもよいです。もし私の身長が4mくらいになるとちょうど良いのかもしれない。

I didn’t start making it as a trivet for giants, but it can hold a large pot, serve as a seat, or support a jar. If I were about four meters tall, it might be just the right size.
