About the Item

This is a box for the matcha powder using while tea ceremony in Japan. It is called 'Natsume'. It is made with wood. The design is some automne flowers and it is all hand painted. The material is with wood and lacquer. This natsume was made in Japan in Showa era around 1980s. Dimensions: 6.5 x 6.5 x H7 cm In the traditional Japanese tea ceremony, each element of the ritual has a meaning. One of them is Natsume. Natsume is a box for storing matcha powder. Usually, a certain amount of powder is poured into it, depending on the number of guests serving. Natsume is not an airtight container, so it is advisable to keep the matcha, only when we serve the tea and not for a long time. Natsume's small box will bring you closer to the true ritual of preparing matcha at home.
