🧼 Delicate Washi Paper Care & Cleaning Guidelines:

Water Precaution (Hand Clean Only): Never submerge this canister in water or place it inside a dishwasher. The exterior is crafted from genuine, unlaminated plant paper. To clean the inside, simply wipe it thoroughly with a clean, bone-dry cloth.
Storage Location: Store in a cool, dark, dry place away from direct sinks, steam zones, or intense sunlight to maintain the vibrancy of the hand-crafted paper pigments over time.
Initial Cleaning Note: When switching out varieties of tea inside the tin, a wipe-down with a dry paper towel is recommended to absorb lingering essential tea oils from the metal walls.
