Isuke Japanese Lacquered Tea Caddy Sandalwood Design Canister
This traditional Japanese tea caddy is made from wood powder molded with resin, and coated in lacquer using ancient Japanese lacquerware techniques.
As Japanese green tea is growing in popularity, not just in Japan but across the world, the popularity of traditional Japanese tea canisters is rising too. Tea canisters are essential for keeping your tea leaves fresh, and are also a stylish and luxurious addition to your home's decor. This tea canister was designed to store tea leaves and keep them fresh, but can also be used for coffee, sugar, or anything else that you'd like to keep in a cool, dry container.
This tea caddy is lacquered in the byakudan-nuri (sandalwood) style, which uses lacquer over foil to create distinct patterns. Byakudan-nuri is typically a deep red and black color, and has an almost glittering appearance. It's one of the most famous traditional styles of lacquerware from Japan.
Isuke has been dealing with lacquer and lacquerware in Kyoto for nearly 200 years, their traditional and contemporary Japanese designs are enhanced by the quality materials they use, which results in outstandingly high-quality and luxurious products.
