The "JOIN" tea container has a very simple, modern design. The colored ring emphasises the natural beauty of the traditional cherry bark. The ring also allows to easily identify different teas if you have more than one at home. Coating the tea container with cherry bark also prevents air and humidity to enter the container always keeping the tea fresh. This cherry bar teabox has been selected to become of the "THE WONDER 500" products. It is a selection of products that are promoted by the Ministry of Economy on events outside of Japan.
Kabazaiku is a uniquely Japanese art form that used the national tree, Sakura, and turns its bark into beautiful, long lasting products. There are about five companies remaining who still master the traditional, complex art form that was passed down from generation to generation. One of these companies is TOMIOKA SHOTEN.
Starting up in 1970, TOMIOKA is renowned for their highly skilled craftsmen and their combinations of modern design with traditional art work. Their aim is to continue to provide the highest quality of art work for many years to come, and transfer their craftsmanship to the next generations
