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.
