[JEWELRY BOX] HINOKI-BOX SQUARE WHITE WOOD | KYO BUTSUDAN|IWATA HOURAIYA

Jewelry Box Feature 1

A gem to be passed down from generation to generation

Throughout Japan's history, butsudan (Buddhist altars) and butsugu (Buddhist ritual utensils) have taken root and developed in people's lifestyles. Kyo-butsudan and Kyo-butsugu made in Kyoto began to be produced in earnest in the Heian period (794-1185), and today, nearly 70% of their production is for use in temples.

Among these, the butsudan (Buddhist altar) and ritual articles housed in temples that embody traditional Japanese culture are truly first-class products. The high level of technology is highly regarded not only in Japan, but also overseas.

This jewelry box is one of the items made using traditional techniques. It is a special box that shines with traditional techniques, so it would be wonderful to pass it down from parents to children and from children to grandchildren. We hope you will enjoy holding it in your hand while drawing a story for the future.

Jewelry Box Feature 2

Simple design with dignified beauty

The material is solid hinoki cypress. When you hold it in your hand, you will be healed by the good smell of Japanese cypress. The grain of the white wood is so beautiful that you can't help but admire it. Everyone will know the charm of natural wood itself. This box has a unique impression of not only the warmth that only wood can give, but also the dignified strength and serenity.

The smoothness of the surface is due to the fact that it is handcrafted by craftsmen using traditional techniques. The smooth texture is full of the gentleness of solid wood.

With a lid made of the same material that fits snugly into place, it can be used to store small items that tend to become miscellaneous. It can be stacked up to 4 layers if you like, so you can sort and store everything from your regular accessories to accessories and knick-knacks for special occasions.

Various ways to use! For storage for show

Although this item was created as a jewelry box, it is so simple and elegant that it can be used for a variety of purposes. For example, it can be used as a storage box for your precious watches or sunglasses. You can display them with the lid open, and when not in use for a while, you can keep the lid closed to keep them dust-free.

It is also perfect as a box for storing passports and other important personal items that you do not want to lose. We also recommend displaying your favorite objet d'art, artificial flowers, dried flowers, etc. as interior decoration items.

Anyway, how to use it depends on your ideas. However, since the surface is finished only with wax, care should be taken when placing wet items on it. Be careful not to stain or damage the surface by laying oil-resistant paper or cloth or paper.

For storing short or small items

The box measures 7.87 in. (20cm) length and 7.87 in. (20cm) depth, a solid area that can hold a large number of accessories together. The height is not so high 1.97 in. (5cm), but it is large enough to hold large men's watches and wide bangles without any problem. This thinness is very convenient for storage in a chest of drawers or drawers.

If you want to store a lot of things, stack boxes on top of each other. It is nice to be able to add tiers according to your needs, such as dividing the boxes into two tiers for you and your spouse to put your own things in, or for you and your child to use together.
