Tea caddy “Negoro”: A fusion of tradition and modernity for matcha fans
“Negoro” may seem modern and minimalist at first glance. In fact, this design is a very traditional Japanese motif of the wabi-sabi aesthetic . Centuries ago, matcha containers were primarily made in red and black lacquer. The black stripes on the red background imitate the effect when the outer layer slowly peels off and the layer underneath becomes visible - a tribute to the natural patina of time.
Indispensable accessory for every tea ceremony with Matcha
“Negoro” is a so-called “ Natsume box ” that plays an essential role in the traditional tea ceremony and was specially designed to safely store high-quality matcha . It ensures that your matcha stays fresh until the moment of serving. For optimal long-term storage, we recommend sealing the matcha airtight in the bag provided and storing it safely in the box.
Whether as a thoughtful gift for true matcha fans or as an elegant addition to your own collection - the "Negoro" tea caddy is more than just a storage option; it is a testament to living Japanese culture and art. Let yourself be enchanted by this special work of art and deepen your connection to Japanese tea culture.
