Each cherry bark tea caddy is unique, with natural variations in colour and texture that give every piece its own character. Carefully shaped and assembled by artisans, it reflects the Kabazaiku tradition of Akita and brings the warmth of natural materials to your tea space.

Made from mountain cherry bark, this Japanese tea container helps protect tea leaves from excess moisture and preserve their aroma. Its surface develops a deeper lustre over time, adding character with everyday use.

Its simple shape harmonises with Japanese teapots and teacups, creating a welcoming setting for your daily tea ritual. A thoughtfully crafted object that makes storing and preparing your favourite tea a quiet pleasure.
