Magewappa is a traditional Japanese craft specializing in the creation of wooden bentwoodware, such as cylindrical boxes, containers, and trays. Originating in Odate City in Akita Prefecture, this artisanal technique has been perfected over centuries, producing elegant and functional wooden items celebrated for their natural beauty and craftsmanship. Made from Odate cedar, renowned for its high-quality timber, Magewappa items carry a refreshing and pleasant fragrance. The natural oils in the cedar wood enhance the craft’s durability making it ideal for storing food items. Crafted from a single piece of cedar or cypress wood, the Magewappa Bento Box is skillfully bent and shaped into an oval form with a fitted bottom and lid. This craftsmanship results in a product that is significantly lighter than plastic or steel alternatives, enhancing its portability. The box is protected with a urethane or lacquer finish, ensuring it can withstand daily use while maintaining its timeless appearance. The bento box is equipped with a specialized coating that makes it easy to clean and dishwasher safe, providing convenience and ensuring it remains hygienic with every use. Its design is perfect for packing a variety of foods, from traditional Japanese dishes to modern snacks, combining visual appeal with practical functionality. To preserve the box’s integrity, it should not be immersed in water for extended periods, exposed to direct heat sources, or kept in environments with high humidity or direct sunlight. Additionally, it is not suitable for use in ovens or microwaves and should be kept away from direct flames. While dishwasher safe, careful handling is recommended to maintain its artisanal beauty and functional longevity. Product Dimensions: 2.6 x 5.1 x 7 inches. Product Weight: 0.3 pounds.
