number : C00325
Artist : Denshiro
Material : cherry bark
Area : Kakunodate, Akita Prefecture
Dimensions : approx. φ75 x H130mm / approx.150g
It is natural that the knots of the cherry bark extend in the horizontal direction, but by using them in the vertical direction, the "vertical" tea caddy has a unique look.
As all the parts of a tea caddy are made from one cylinder, thus it has a high airtightness, and will protect tea leaves from moisture.
*This is handmade one by one. The color, shape and size of the works that you received at hand may slight variations from the photographs. Please appreciate and enjoy it as character of individual pieces.
*Storage in an extremely dry place may cause peeling of the bark on the surface and distortion of the entire product.
*Be careful not to get it wet as it may cause the cherry bark to come off. Do not leave it in a humid place for a long time.
*Be careful not to expose it to direct sunlight to prevent distortion, cracking and fading.
