A tea caddy with a nostalgic yet novel design!
This is a collaborative product between an artist from Lake Akan Ainu Kotan and Yamatsugi Seishi, a company that produces Echizen Washi paper in Fukui Prefecture.
The Ainu patterns are expressed using "Uki-gami," a unique technique developed by Yamatsugi Seishi.
It features a design that evokes a sense of novelty within a nostalgic atmosphere.
It's perfect not only for storing tea but also for snacks, coffee beans, and more, making it an ideal souvenir for foreigners or a gift for those who appreciate Japanese history and traditional crafts.
Bring the simple and modern Ainu culture into your daily life.
Please enjoy the great traditional culture, nurtured and passed down in the great nature of the north, in your own preferred style.
We now offer 4 colors, including鶯色 (uguisu-iro - nightingale color) and 水色 (mizuiro - light blue), in three sizes: small, medium, and large.

The washi paper may peel off. • Do not place near fire. • The product photo is for illustrative purposes only.
