Yamada in Teradomari, Niigata Prefecture, a region adjacent to the Sea of Japan, is home to the union of the sieve industry since the Edo period, and products such as a sieve, tea strainer, and steaming basket were actively produced.
Adachi Shigehisa Shoten inherits the history of Yamada and has now become the only long-established workshop of round wooden chip boxes in Niigata Prefecture. Their seiro (steaming basket) persistently follows the traditional production procedure. Adachi Shigehisa Shoten continues to produce authentic products applying the inherited techniques.
Please enjoy the traditional techniques that live in our modern world at home.
Hello, I just wanted to let you know that my order arrived today - this is excellent service! Extremely fast delivery and a beautiful piece. I have wanted an uragoshi for a long time. I use this in my job as a paper conservator, for sieving nori (starch paste) but until now I have not had one of my own, I always use one belonging to the workplace.
So, thank you very much, I will recommend your website to others!
