I am a Small Toradake Bread Basket. Though I may be small and lightweight, my tiger-like bamboo coat is just as strong as my namesake.
This basket is made of Toradake bamboo, which is harvested to yield a surface reminiscent of a tiger coat. The organic stripey pattern gives the basket a darkened look that feels vintage and well-loved. Use it to present warmed bread or pastries to guests. You can line the basket with linens, but since bamboo is naturally anti-microbial, food can also be placed directly in the basket. It also makes for the perfect gift basket of household items like tea accessories and cloths. The versatility makes it a practical addition to any kitchen, perfect for everyday use or for special occasions.
