Copper & Tin Tea Canister - 3 Sizes
- Keep you tea fresh with these beautiful Tea Canisters
- Japanese hand-crafted copper tea canisters, with tin plated finishing
- A perfect object for tea storage at home
- This canister can also be used for coffee and other dry good
- Designers collaborate with craftsmen to create an exceptional product
This canister has a perfect two-layer closure design to help keep the tea air tight so that no moisture enters, preserving the scent and freshness of the tea. A great deal of skill is necessary in order to make the top fall perfectly without any physical pressure.
There is a protective wax coating that gradually wears away and you will see the colour change with time from oxidation and handling. In Japan we consider this part of the beauty of the object.
Designed by Osamu Saruyama

Japan-Best is first and foremost a story about Japanese craftsmen with the influence of contemporary design. We are inspired by the timeless beauty of traditional Japanese craftsmanship, and their ability to adapt to our modern lifestyle. The more brands we meet, the more passionate we become about the stories behind each product; the skills of the craftsmen, or the long tradition of an object left unchanged for generations yet somehow remaining contemporary.
Japan-Best is a collection of Japanese brands, which we have selected for the originality of their design, the quality of their production, the fact that their production is “Made in Japan”, and the long history that they maintain, quite often for several generations.
Our selection of Japanese food is also based on craftsmanship in agriculture. We choose brands based on how they are made and we love brands that continue to use traditional natural techniques to grow food and prepare it. Good packaging and design is always and added joy to find!
