Know before you buy
While the canister is beautifully crafted from solid brass, it is primarily designed as a decorative object. It is not recommended for direct contact with food items.
To maintain the luster of the brass, wipe the canister gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges, as these can damage the hand-etched details and the metallic finish.
The canister features a lift-off lid designed for easy access and aesthetic appeal. It is not airtight, so it is best suited for storing non-perishable decorative items or keepsakes.
Because each piece is meticulously handcrafted and hand-etched, there may be slight variations in the texture and pattern. These subtle differences are a hallmark of the artisan process and ensure that every canister is unique.
The collection is available in four sizes ranging from extra small to large. The varying heights and cocoon-shaped silhouettes are designed to be layered together, making them ideal for creating a curated, sculptural display on a shelf or console table.
