Know before you buy
Yes, the canister features a press-fit lid with a silicone seal designed to provide a secure closure for dry goods like flour, sugar, or coffee beans.
To preserve the hand-painted finish and the integrity of the enamel, we recommend hand-washing with mild soap and drying immediately. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh detergents.
Because each piece is hand-painted, you should expect slight variations in the Courtly Checks pattern. These unique nuances are a hallmark of the artisanal process and ensure that no two canisters are exactly alike.
Absolutely. The canister is crafted from heavy-gauge steel and finished with food-safe glazes that exceed both FDA and Prop 65 standards.
This medium size has a 48-ounce capacity, making it well-suited for standard kitchen staples, small office supplies, or bathroom essentials like cotton swabs.
The rim is made of durable bronzed stainless steel, which is resistant to corrosion. However, to maintain its luster and prevent any potential spotting, it is best to keep the rim dry and avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
