Kiribako – Traditional Japanese Paulownia Wood Box
Discover our Kiribako (桐箱), traditional Japanese boxes crafted from paulownia (桐, kiri) wood, valued for its exceptional lightness and its natural ability to help protect precious objects.
For centuries in Japan, Kiribako boxes have been used to store and protect ceramics, porcelain, lacquerware, artworks and other treasured objects. Paulownia wood helps buffer changes in humidity, making these boxes particularly well suited to the careful storage of delicate pieces.
Why choose a Kiribako?
- Traditional protection: paulownia wood helps protect stored objects from changes in humidity
- Lightweight: kiri wood is remarkably light while remaining suitable for protective storage
- Ideal for kintsugi: an elegant presentation and storage box for restored ceramics
- Versatile: suitable for tea bowls (chawan), ceramics, vases, lacquerware and other precious objects
- Japanese tradition: a refined way to present and preserve objects inspired by centuries of Japanese craftsmanship
Our Kiribako boxes are particularly suitable for kintsugi and ceramics enthusiasts, collectors and lovers of Japanese craftsmanship, combining simplicity, functionality and traditional aesthetics.
