Takenokawa
Eventually, the barengawa (bamboo cover) on a baren will wear out. When this happens, you want to recover your baren using the same material. The traditional Takenokawa (bamboo sheaths) have the ability to glide smoothly over damp paper.
Our Takenokawa are imported directly from Japan, and are strong, smooth textured and free from blemish. Each one is carefully examined before shipping.
Store at a constant humidity; too damp and they will mold, too dry and they become brittle and crack. Order takenokawa when you need them because they also become brittle with age.
Complete instructions for recovering your baren are included.
Shipping weight: because we take extra care packaging takenokawa, we add a minimum shipping weight of 1 lb per order
