Tea storage canister
Ideal for preserving tea, this tin is covered in traditional mulberry paper and adorned with the iconic Japanese wave pattern on a lovely spring green background.
The Seigaiha Washi Canister
Crafted using Japanese artisanal techniques, our washi tins are hand-covered with traditional mulberry paper.
This tin features the Seigaiha pattern, Japan's emblematic wave. First appearing around the 8th century during the Nara period, this motif is a powerful cultural symbol representing harmony, protection and tranquility. The green background adds a fresh, spring-like touch.
A precious gift for yourself or others
In the Land of the Rising Sun, "wa" means Japanese and "shi" means paper; "washi" therefore literally means "Japanese paper". However, "wa" also signifies harmony and peace: washi is also the paper of harmony.
Choosing a washi canister honors both the tea and its recipient; it is a true jewel box adorned with symbolic patterns, a remarkable and lasting gift that is essential for preserving the freshness of all teas.
