This small steel chazutsu (tea canister) features a unique seal, formed using a TPE gasket. Sealing with an audible click, the canister is both airtight and water tight.
To close, squeeze the lid onto the can with both hands until it clicks shut. To open, twist the lid off.
The finish of the canister is also designed to be written on with blackboard markers (which can be erased with a damp cloth).
Founded in 1910, Kotodo (江東堂) has been producing handmade tea canisters for 112 years. Compared to machine-made canisters, their washi-wrapping is seamless, with no bumps where the lid meets the body, producing a clean silhouette.
