Yu-zen Washi Tin Canister 7 oz (200g), KIKU, Black and White with Gold Color Tin Internal Cap, Made in Japan
Kotodo’s canisters are crafted in the style of traditional Japanese tea canisters, designed with features that protect delicate tea leaves from Japan's humid climate. The airtight design and cylindrical shape prevent moisture accumulation, ensuring the contents remain fresh. These canisters feature a double lid system, with a smooth, gold-colored metal inner lid for added protection against air and humidity. The design is as functional as it is beautiful, with a pattern-matching lid that clicks into place for a secure, seamless closure.
Key Features:
-
Smooth Surface: The edges of the lid and body are flush, minimizing friction and prolonging the life of the Washi paper while offering an aesthetically pleasing finish.
-
Pattern Matching Lid: The lid clicks into place with a satisfying "click," ensuring perfect alignment of the patterns on the body and cover, a feature exclusive to handmade canisters.
-
Airtight Metal Inner Lid: Made of high-grade tin with a gold color finish, this lid helps protect against light, air, and humidity, ensuring optimal freshness. The lid's knob is easy to pull open, and each lid is meticulously adjusted for a perfect fit.
-
Beveled Edges for Safety: The lid and body are carefully beveled inward to prevent accidental cuts, prioritizing user safety.
-
Lead-Free Construction: KOTODO no longer uses leaded solder and has switched to electric welding, ensuring all canisters are made with lead-free, food-grade steel and tin for 100% safety.
-
Material: High-quality tin-plated steel is used, which is eco-friendly, recyclable, and maintains the freshness of contents, especially delicate tea leaves. The smooth finish and durability make it a premium and elegant material.
