About the Artwork
I took part in the "Important Intangible Cultural Property Successors' Training Program" held in 2017 and 2018 and learned the "masawari bundle plaiting" technique. I made many samples using this technique, and I finally came up with this design from one of the samples. The basket is a three-layer structure consisting of the bundle plait, the orange ajiro weave and the back side.

Techniques Used
Plaited bamboo
Plaited bamboo basketry (amimono) is created by weaving together hundreds of strips of bamboo into patterns known as plaiting (ami). Various patterns and shapes can be created by using bamboo strips of different widths or thicknesses. The many styles of plaiting utilize bamboo’s pliability to produce beautifully patterned works.
