Our wooden boxes in Japanese paulownia wood are the ideal plastic-free storage for your rice, bread or other food.
The box is handmade by Japanese 'Matsuda Kiribako Co. ' without the use of nails or metal fittings. A fine craftsmanship characteristic of the Kasukabe City area of Saitama, which is known for its paulownia products.
Boxes made of Paulownia wood are a traditional Japanese container for storing rice and other foods, clothes, etc
Paulownia is rich in insect repellants such as tannin, paulownin and sesamin, and due to its porous structure, paulownia has a high ability to regulate moisture.
The wooden boxes are therefore used in Japanese kitchens to store and protect food. The boxes are also used elsewhere in Japanese homes for storing and organizing clothes and other everyday items.
The boxes are made with a beautiful and practical sliding door opening, which makes it easy to take things out of the box with your hands or with the help of the accompanying ladle, which holds 2 dl. It is also possible to remove the entire top lid, which makes it easy to fill and clean the box.
Our Paulownia boxes are available in two sizes, both of which come with matching Paulownia scoops:
- 30 x 24 x 18 cm (holds 5 kg)
- 30 x 24 x 27 cm (holds 10 kg)
Designed and handmade in Japan 🇯🇵
We only use carefully curated FSC certified furniture wood. The primary woods are oak, smoked oak and walnut. In addition, we offer a number of special types of wood that are sold in conjunction with special orders, e.g. Teak, ash, chestnut, golden rain, cherry, wengé, zebrano, beech, etc.
We finish all products with a high-quality wood oil, but if you would prefer e.g. an oil with a white pigment, we can of course do that too - the desired final treatment can be mentioned under the remarks of the ordering.
If you do not find what you are looking for on this page, or if you have questions, we can be contacted by phone +45 4243 4393 or mail.
NOTE that we are always trying to create unique and elaborate products with an exciting visual expression and colour profile. You should therefore take our product photos with a grain of salt and not as a guarantee of how the finished product looks.
Remember, wood is a living material. There are no two pieces of wood that are identical, so all product photos are only indicative.
You can do a little surfing on our website and see examples of products we have made in the different woods to get a better impression of the colour variations of the woods, structure and expression.
If you are in any doubt about choosing a type of wood for a product, you are welcome to contact us for a chat about the possibilities. We gladly counsel and seek to inspire 😊
In general
All product photos are real photos of the specific products. However, some photos have added interiors and surroundings created using artificial intelligence to create atmosphere and put the product into context.
Regarding Woodworks
We aim to continuously expand the catalog so that sizes and designs are best illustrated in the webshop.
There are not photos of all variants and sizes, so the photo that appears when choosing a variant in the webshop mainly reflects only the type of wood - not necessarily size or other variations in the design.
NOTE that we always try to create unique wooden products with an exciting visual expression. You must therefore take our product photos as a guide and not as a guarantee of how the finished product appears in terms of year drawings and color play.
Any questions?
If you have questions about the choice of design, sizes, colors or type of wood - or if you have special wishes, you are always very welcome to contact us at info@rune-jakobsen.dk and get your questions clarified before you order.
