Wastebasket in nature
Handmade wastebasket from BUNACO in molded Japanese beech with a simple and well-thought-out design, making it suitable for display in any room.
The wastebasket is made of beech wood, which is cut into paper-thin layers and shaped by hand using a special spiral technique. Instead of carving out solid wood, the form is built up layer by layer – a process that requires time and precision and results in a light and strong construction. Each wastebasket is hand-shaped and completely unique. The finish of the wastebasket is completely smooth and soft.
The wastebasket is manufactured in Aomori, Japan – in the area with Japan's largest beech forest. The wood is processed with respect for the material and with minimal waste. They are made in a way that highlights the wood's natural structure and shape.
We discovered the wastebasket on our trip to Japan in the Tohoku region, where we met Sugiko, who is behind the brand.
BUNACO is a Japanese design and woodcraft company founded in 1963. Their unique 'spiral technique' was developed after extensive research into how they could most effectively and environmentally friendly use the many beech trees in the Aomori area, which were otherwise difficult to use due to moisture content and dimensional stability. BUNACO has received a number of awards, including the Good Design Awards. We are proud to be the first in Denmark to present BUNACO.
