Wholesale Karmi Tea Canister - So, Sumi (Black)

A thoroughly modern take on a centuries-old craft. The Karmi collection of tea canisters from Gato is a series of airtight and handcrafted vessels made in the tradition of Yamanaka lacquerware. Each container is crafted from solid Cherry Birch that has been meticulously dried before being expertly turned by a craftsman. Layers of lacquer are applied and dried in a process that takes up to a year to complete. The result is a seemingly machined container that keeps tea leaves, coffee, and spices fresh and ready for enjoyment. Winner of the 2010 Good Design Award. Holds 50g. Please note: Due to the artisanal nature of Gato products, all styles are made to order. Please allow 8 to 16 weeks for delivery of out-of-stock products. Additional details regarding lead times will be provided upon placement of an order. Contact info@morihata.com with any questions.
