Hinoki Box – Tall

Description

Curator’s Notes

There are so many things I love about this box, from its lightly fragrant wood to its joinery details. Designed to hold cutlery, the hinoki cypress wood is highly durable and resistant to water, making it perfect for the kitchen. But feel free to use this box to organize whatever tools you have lying around – pencils or pens would also have a wonderful home in this box.
