Know before you buy
The Shimanto cypress lid is designed to sit securely on the ceramic base to protect your salt from moisture and dust, but it is not airtight. It is intended for easy, one-handed access while cooking.
Yes, the ceramic body is dishwasher safe. However, the wooden lid should be hand-washed and dried thoroughly to preserve the quality of the cypress.
The 420ml capacity is quite generous for a countertop container. It comfortably holds a standard box of kosher salt or a large supply of sea salt, reducing the need for frequent refills.
Zero Japan uses ethically sourced, natural Shimanto cypress. The wood is left in its natural state to maintain its eco-friendly properties and characteristic scent.
Ceramic is a non-porous material, meaning it will not absorb odors or flavors from the spices or salts stored inside. It is easy to clean and will remain neutral over time.
