Yu-zen Washi Tin Canister 7 oz (200g), Paper Washi - KIN SEIGAIHA, White and Gold

Discover the perfect blend of tradition and craftsmanship with Kotodo’s Yu-zen Washi Tin Canister. This meticulously crafted canister, made in Japan, draws inspiration from traditional Japanese tea canisters, designed to protect delicate tea leaves from moisture and light. Featuring a gold-colored tin inner lid, this canister ensures optimal airtight storage, keeping your tea or other ingredients fresh.

The unique design incorporates a smooth surface and flawless finish, with the lid and body edges aligning perfectly for a sleek appearance. The traditional round shape is not only symbolic of good fortune but also practical, preventing moisture accumulation. The canister’s inner lid is made of high-grade tin, which maintains airtightness all year round and resists temperature changes better than plastic, ensuring your contents remain undisturbed by light, air, or moisture.

Key Features:

• Handcrafted Excellence: The canister is primarily handmade, with vintage machines used for specific production steps. Each piece is carefully finished by hand to ensure high-quality standards.

• Airtight Metal Inner Lid: The high-grade tin lid prevents air and humidity from entering, preserving your tea or other ingredients in the best condition.

• Smooth Surface and Perfect Alignment: The lid and body edges are flush, reducing friction and prolonging the life of the washi paper covering. The lid "clicks" into place when aligned, ensuring a secure seal and aesthetically pleasing pattern match.

• Beveled Cut Edges for Safety: The cut edges of the canister are beveled inwards, ensuring user safety and a more comfortable handling experience.

• Eco-Friendly and Premium Material: Made from tin-plated steel, known for its durability and recyclability. Tin is also a traditional and premium material in Japan, maintaining the freshness of the contents inside.

• Lead-Free and Safe: The canisters are made using lead-free, food-grade steel and tin, ensuring safety and peace of mind for the user.
