Canisters


Handmade metal canisters from Japan have just arrived.
In copper, brass and tin plate.

All shapes and sizes, really nice for storing some
MR KITLY tea:)

To quote the makers, the canisters are:

"Simple item that will someday become antiques.
To hold your interest, the shape is simple.
Artisans make them by hand to use the minimum
number of lines free of unevenness from any angle.
The comfort of smooth opening and closing is realized
through such meticulous work. Scuffing is also done by hand.
Hardly any streaks or stains remain, giving a beautiful matte finish."

Also from same design house,
handmade wooden rattles and chopstick rests
now in store (and coming soon on web shop).
