This highly popular item is carefully crafted by the artisans of Nousaku, a leading Japanese traditional craft brand. After use, wash with a soft sponge and mild kitchen detergent. If the luster begins to fade, use baking soda. Also, since 100% tin is soft, do not scrub with a hard brush, as this may scratch the surface. Do not place near open flames as it has a low melting point. As it is made of metal, it cannot be used in the microwave. Do not use in the dishwasher or dryer as it may become very hot.
Do not store in the freezer as low temperatures may cause the tin to deteriorate. Also, avoid storing in the refrigerator for long periods of time. Also, do not leave highly acidic or dark-colored foods in it for long periods of time as this may cause discoloration.
