Cherry bark tea box frost

The outside of this tea box uses a marbled bark that expresses the natural bark of wild cherry as it is. To the touch you can feel the texture of the bark as on the trunk of the tree in its natural habitat. The slightly grey-white colour is reminiscent of the frost of the last winter mornings. A precious object, a raw nature, for a unique experience.

This tea box has been made using the "Kabazaiku" bark working technique of the Denshiro house, which dates back to 1851 and has been handed down over six generations. The bark of wild cherry trees is harvested in such a way as to allow its regeneration so as not to interfere with the growth of the trees.
