Description

This Copper Tea Canister made by Seigado, a metalworking workshop in Niigata Prefecture, features a golden brown color. Each piece is handmade using the traditional hammering technique of "Tsuiki".

The ground color of the copper is accented with small flowers and horizontal stripes.　This copper tea canister is hermetically sealed to keep tea leaves tasty.

The top lid should be closed in such a way that the line of the rivets is aligned with the line of the rivets on the body. Otherwise, it will be difficult to open and close the lid.

When the top lid is inserted correctly, it will drop down smoothly. After that, turn it to the right and it will stop at the point where you hear a click.

Maker / Brand

Seigado

Seigado’s workshop is located at the foot of Mt. Yahiko in Niigata Prefecture, where high-quality copper was discovered about 300 years ago. This region is where the traditional tsuiki metalworking technique finds its roots.
In Japan, there's a saying that things get better with use, and Seigado's products possess a charm that inspires you to cherish and care for them over time.

Crafts

Metalwork

Metalwork has long been prized for its durability and gorgeous appearance. In Japan, bronze swords and harnesses were made from the Yayoi period (10th century BCE–mid-3rd century CE) based on techniques introduced from China and Korea. With the rise of Buddhism, the construction of temples, Buddhist statues, and ritual implements flourished, and metalworking techniques also advanced. Eventually, a wide variety of products such as tea ceremony utensils, Japanese swords, armor, and ornaments came to be manufactured.
