Description
The washi canisters celebrate Japanese artisanal crafts and are hand-covered with traditional mulberry paper. This paper is decorated with golden circles that represent the full moon. The Japanese traditionally gather to admire the full moon in autumn, when it is particularly beautiful.
In Japanese culture, the rabbit is closely linked to the moon; many people can make out the animal’s shape in the shadows on its surface. This association stems from an ancient legend imbued with generous wisdom.
They feature a double lid to keep tea in perfect condition. The washi canisters come in two sizes: 100g and 150g.
Boxes’ sizes:
100g = 12.4x6.5cm
150g = 15.3x7.5cm
To mark the 2025 holiday season, Palais des Thés’ ever-popular washi canisters come in special festive finishes. Four other designs make up the collection : Matsu, Blooming mountains, Golden Kanoko and Asanoha.
