This Raku ceramic box is a unique piece. Lovingly shaped to give it the appearance of an imaginary fruit, this handcrafted piece is much more than a simple box, it is also a decorative object that can accommodate all kinds of little things to hide, on a sideboard or example. This piece of ceramic is the perfect gift for raku lovers or anyone who loves objects like no other.

Precautions for optimal use:
- Since raku is porous, I do not recommend using this box for foodstuffs. However, if you want to put your loose tea in it, for example, keep it in the plastic bag, then insert it directly into the box.

This raku ceramic box dressed in subtly cracked mauve combines authenticity and creativity. It will definitely bring an artisanal and original touch to your interior!
