Description

The washi canisters celebrate Japanese artisanal crafts and are hand-covered with traditional mulberry paper. This paper is decorated with curling foliage, or karakusa in Japanese, a traditional pattern imported into Japan from China during the Nara period (710-794). It is considered a symbol of good luck and is often combined with flowers, or hana in Japanese.

Discover our cup with the same design! Made by Japanese craftspeople, it is available in a very limited edition.

Washi canisters feature a double lid to keep tea in perfect condition. The washi canisters come in two sizes: 100g and 150g.

Boxes’ sizes:

100g = 12.4x6.5cm

150g = 15.3x7.5cm

To herald the arrival of spring 2025, our iconic washi canisters have acquired fresh new colours and patterns. Five designs make up the collection : Tsuru, Kingyo, Cherry Blossom, Tsuyu shiba and Arabesque Foliage.
