For cleaning, wipe with a dry cloth or gently wipe with a small amount of alcohol on a cloth. ・ To prevent the paulownia from accumulating too much moisture, you can release the moisture absorbed by the paulownia once by drying it in a well-ventilated place for about half a day at the turn of the season. ● Characteristics of paulownia Paulownia is the lightest material in Japan. The thin wall of the cell membrane and the large air layer inside make it softer and more elastic than other woods. The wood itself has some resilience, but paulownia has a high ability. It has the power to restore even some scratches and dents. Paulownia is porous and is made up of densely packed, bubble-like independent tissues that are not easily affected by the outside air and have excellent heat retention and heat insulation. Since paulownia wood has a very small shrinkage rate, it is a wood that has few deviations in design and cracks, can be precision processed, and has little dimensional change. Since there is little deviation in the design, you can make a box without any gaps. One of the charms of paulownia is that it has a beautiful grain and you can enjoy aging like leather products by using it carefully. ● What is kirihaco? Masuda Kiribox store has been manufacturing paulownia boxes for about 90 years in Koga City, Fukuoka Prefecture. We are conducting research every day so that we can select the type of paulownia and how to assemble it according to the purpose of the box. We have also developed and proposed unique processing methods to make beautiful boxes and attractive boxes. As part of the manufacturing process, we have set up the concept of "a paulownia box to be incorporated into our daily lives" and have been developing products as a [kirihaco project] with the owner of the Fukuoka Living Tools Store. ● Award Wood Design Award Jury Chairman Award ● Information This item is a limited quantity product.
