Beautiful hand made storage box created using traditional paulownia box techniques from Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture—a town of heritage crafts.

Crafted by Urata Art Wooden Boxes, makers of wooden art boxes that protect precious artworks for generations. This piece brings the same meticulous craftsmanship to everyday kitchen storage, utilizing paulownia's exceptional properties: moisture regulation, antibacterial qualities, preservation, and natural insect repellent.

Long treasured in Japan's humid climate for storing kimonos and valuables, paulownia maintains consistent humidity level inside the box—ideal for bread, rice (holds 5kg), tea, dried goods, and sweets. The sleek design blends seamlessly whether left out in the kitchen or lined up in cabinets.

Versatile enough as digital equipment storage (or anything you'd like to keep dry) or as a desk organizer. The lid doubles as a small tray too.
