This tea caddy is meticulously wrapped—inside, outside, and across the lid—in finely polished, genuine wild cherry bark. Carefully dried over time and expertly shaved to a delicate thinness, each layer reveals the unique grain and natural hues of the bark, making every piece one of a kind.

Cherry bark is revered not only for its subtle beauty but also for its practical virtues: gentle ventilation, moisture regulation, and inherent antibacterial properties. These qualities make the caddy exceptionally suited for preserving the delicate aroma and freshness of tea leaves.

Crafted using the time-honoured Japanese technique of Kaba-zaiku (cherry bark craftsmanship) from Akita Prefecture, each piece reflects a quiet elegance rooted in timeless tradition.
