Yu-zen Washi Tin Canister 7 oz (200g), Hana, Silver and Dark Blue with Gold Color Tin Internal Cap – Made in Japan

Experience the blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern functionality with the Yu-zen Washi Tin Canister, designed in the style of classic Japanese tea canisters. Made to preserve the delicate qualities of your tea leaves, this canister is a perfect example of the careful attention to detail that defines Kotodo products. The unique airtight structure, featuring an inner metal lid and overlapping edges, protects your tea from humidity, ensuring its freshness over time. The round shape, which is also considered auspicious in Japanese culture, contributes to the canister's functionality and elegance.

Product Features:

• Design and Construction: The Yu-zen Washi Tin Canister is made with high-quality tin-plated steel, offering durability and elegance. The smooth surface of the canister is crafted for minimal friction, which prolongs the life of the Washi paper and enhances its aesthetic appeal.

• Airtight Seal: The canister features a high-grade tin inner lid with a gold-colored finish, which provides an airtight seal to protect against light, humidity, and air exposure. This metal lid is far superior to plastic alternatives, as it does not contract with temperature changes and does not affect the aroma of the contents.

• Clicking Lid: A hallmark of Kotodo’s craftsmanship, the lid of the canister features a unique “clicking” mechanism. The lid aligns perfectly with the body of the canister, snapping into place with an audible click when closed. This ensures that the patterns on the lid and body align flawlessly, offering both functionality and beauty.

• Safety and Durability: The canister’s cut edges are beveled inward to ensure user safety, minimizing the risk of injury. Kotodo uses lead-free, food-grade steel and tin in the production process, and the canisters are crafted without solder, using electric welding for a safe, environmentally friendly product.

• Material Excellence: Tin-plated steel, often seen as a premium material in Japan, is used for its ability to preserve the contents by keeping air and light out. This material also maintains the temperature inside the canister, making it ideal for storing delicate items like tea leaves.

• Eco-friendly: Tin is 100% recyclable and widely recycled in Japan, making it an environmentally conscious choice for your storage needs.
