Yama-Biko-Basket

Mountain Craft sha., Ltd (Nagano)

The Yama-Biko-Basket, offered by Mountain Craft sha., Ltd is a basket bag that embodies both tradition and innovation. Characterized by its meticulous and balanced weaving and organic lines, it captivates onlookers and uplifts its users. Leveraging Japan’s ancient mountain grape basket weaving techniques, each bag is carefully handcrafted by skilled artisans, utilizing the durability and texture of the mountain grape vine. With use, each basket develops a unique depth and sheen, evolving into a special item unique to its owner. Yama-Biko represents a brand that not only preserves fading traditional cultures but also spreads new values globally. Based on the principles of respecting the old while knowing the new and sustainability, it proposes ethical fashion items and lifestyles through upcycling. By using natural mountain grape vines, it establishes a coexistence between humans and nature, practicing sustainable manufacturing. The mountain grape vine, a rare material requiring human management for proper symbiosis with other plants, emphasizes the importance of respecting resources through long-term use and aims to promote a healthy cycle of production activities, livelihoods, and plant ecosystems. We believe in the responsibility to pass on this inherited technique and cycle to future generations. The Yama-Biko-Basket is not just a basket bag; it symbolizes a step towards a sustainable future.
