Tea Repertoire


Type: ACCESSORIES



Our handcrafted Matcha canister comes from Yamanaka, Ishikawa Prefecture, a reputed region in Japan for sophisticated lacquerware crafts dating back to the 16th century. As known as NATSUME in Japanese, this traditional Matcha canister is used in the Japanese Tea Ceremony where Matcha is temporarily stored, and then scooped from NATSUME to the Matcha bowl.

With the gracious hand-painting of pine tree and crane, this beautiful Matcha canister embodies longevity in Japan. The pattern of cranes holding pine branches in their beaks has been a motif for traditional earthenware and lacquerware for more than a millennium in Japan.  

An elegant hand-made Matcha canister that will enhance your Matcha ritual.  

Please note that NATSUME is not completely airtight. When you store Matcha in NATSUME, please consume within a few days.
