With the container which Magemono bent the sheets such as hinokis to a circle, an oval in special technique, and was able to bottom out, it seemed to have been already used for everyday life in the Nara era.
Magemono of Kiso, Narai has the history more than 400 years and uses a high quality hinoki and Spanish mackerel examined closely for material, and I perform bending, and a side tool or a tea service set are made along grain by "Hegi", boiling water dipping.
It is got close to the common people after the Edo era when ceramics spread, and, in the present when a synthetic resin product spread out, it is natural material and is light, and the good point that it is easy to use is realized again. A high quality hinoki is considered to be the best material, and the most use "Kiso hinokis" more than 300 years years old.
