Japanese Lidded Wooden Storage Box
Wooden boxes are a common method of safely keeping and storing delicate pottery, vases, and other ceramic, clay, and glass items in Japan. In addition to pottery, they are also widely used for a plethora of other traditional Japanese crafts including kimono accessories, wrapping cloths, chopsticks, commemorative gifts, etc.
This is a handcrafted large Japanese wooden storage box. It has a step-top lid and is made to be carried easily by way of a sturdy ledge beneath the lid. It is lined with what appears to be some old ledger paper inside and out to protect the box.
