[Wrapping with Japanese paper] Suzugami 13x13cm

"Suzugami" differs from ordinary tin plates by rolling repeatedly many times, and by rhythmically "beating with a hammer" by skilled craftsmen, deterioration due to bending and stretching is reduced, and it bends and bends like origami. It is an item that can be worn.

The enjoyment of "Suzugami" is the "fun of shaping yourself" created by the "hammering" technique. Since ancient times, tin has been said to have an antibacterial effect, so it can be used as tableware.

100% tin is very soft and can be easily bent by hand, so you can use it in any shape you like. After bending, it can be restored to its original shape by pushing and rolling it on a horizontal table with a flat, round stick-shaped object (wrap core, etc.). The color will change with use, but please enjoy the change as it is a characteristic of the material.

13 x 13 is the perfect size to use as a serving plate or to place small dishes at a Japanese confectionery shop.

Size: 13 x 13 (cm)

[Precautions for use]

• After use, use a soft sponge and wash with kitchen detergent (neutral). When the luster becomes dull, please use baking soda. Also, since tin (100%) is soft, do not rub it with a hard scrubbing brush. It may scratch the surface.

• Do not place near fire as it has a low melting point. Because it is metal, it cannot be used in a microwave oven. Do not use the dishwasher or dryer as it can get hot.

• Do not put in the freezer, as the tin may deteriorate due to low temperatures. Also, please refrain from long-term storage in the refrigerator. Also, do not leave sour or dark colored items in for a long time. Doing so may cause discoloration.
