More Details
Immerse yourself in the refined world of Japanese bamboo craftsmanship through this guided workshop led by Saori Hashimoto, a bamboo artist dedicated to preserving one of Ishikawa’s rare traditional arts. Japanese bamboo craft typically utilizes only the outermost layers of the bamboo, where the fibers are densest and most durable. These layers possess a natural luster and strength ideal for fine craftsmanship, while the softer inner portions are usually removed. Authentic bamboo works are not only elegant but also long-lasting, with the possibility of repair and continued use over generations. During the workshop, you will craft your own bamboo basket under her careful guidance. Following the session, enjoy a quiet tea time with the artist, offering a moment of reflection and cultural exchange in the heart of Kanazawa. ◎ Schedule 16:00 – Meet 16:00-16:10 Explanation 16:10-16:50 Crafting time 16:50-17:00 Tea At In Kanazawa House, we are committed to providing an environment where everyone, regardless of physical ability, disability, or age can fully enjoy the beauty and culture of Kanazawa.
