Binkago (Bottle Basket) from Sunami Toru Shoten

A bottle basket recommended to people who frequently purchase Japanese sake and wine. It also plays a role as a reusable bag, reducing the use of plastics.

 

Sunami Toru Shoten, founded in 1886, has been manufacturing mat at Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture, a city known to be the birthplace of figured mat and former production area of rush. Sunami Toru Shoten continues their family business by switching their focus on producing "ikago," a basket made of rush that was used as "yamikago" in black markets during the post-war period.

 

Today, Mr. Ryuki Sunami, the fifth generation at Sunami Toru Shoten and the only producer of ikago, creates ikago, each individually by hand, applying the methods he has inherited from his grandmother.
