A masterpiece of one of our favorite Japanese craftsmen Mr. Hasehira, the Miyama Octagonal Bento 391 | Tamo is a large octagonal bento showcasing the natural beauty of Japanese Ash.
Tamo is a prized material traditionally used for high-end furniture, luxury veneers, fine musical instruments like guitars, and celebrated for its durability and rich texture. This ash, naturally dried over 5 years, has a striking, wavy grain pattern, which is why it is often called “watered silk”.
Preserved in a rustic condition to showcase the wood's unique personality.
Details:
- Dimensions: 24cm x 6cm (XL Size) (9.4in x 2.4in)
- Handcrafted in Miyama, Kyoto Prefecture, Japan
Whether as a special gift or a personal indulgence, a Miyama Bento Box embodies elegance, tradition, and timeless design. A true collector’s piece for lovers of Japanese craftsmanship.

The Story
HASEHIRA-SAMA
It all started when Miyama woodworker Mr. Hasehira saw us on national TV and felt inspired to create his own line of bento boxes! When we saw the results of his efforts, we were absolutely delighted. We are incredibly honored to exclusively sell these limited-edition pieces, which Mr. Hasehira continues to meticulously hand-make for our shop.
