The name of this modern style tea container (KAMA = kettle) refers to the its shape of a kettle. The simple lines of the design are put into value through the handcrafted rills on the surface. The cherry birch does not only feel great in your hand, but together with the tight cap it perfectly protects the contents of the container from humidity and other factors.
The additional inner cap prohibits air to get into contact with the container's contents. 

In Japan, this container is mainly used to store green tea, But it also can be used to store coffee, herbs, spices or other food with a delicate flavor.

    Award winning, modern style lacquer ware

    Gato Mikio was originally a woodworking plant with its founder being a highly-skilled wood turner. The second generation of the Gato family started to develop lacquer skills and add it to their shop, and by the time the third generation took over they focused on designing and planning lacquerware on top of their already high-quality, fine-grain wood. 

    Their products with contemporary design won many awards in Japan and abroad.
