This Artisan Cedar Bento Box is carefully handcrafted from Japanese cedar with a paulownia wood lid, combining natural materials with a beautifully minimal design. The fine grain and soft luster of the cedar interior contrast gently with the light-toned lid, highlighting the warmth and texture of each piece.

Made without glue or nails, the box is assembled using traditional methods, creating a smooth, seamless form that is safe, natural, and eco-friendly. The rounded corners and subtly tapered sides make it easy to pack, carry, and clean. It’s a thoughtful option for everyday meals, whether at home or at the office.

Cedar’s natural breathability helps keep rice fresh by gently absorbing excess moisture while preserving softness. Over time, the wood deepens in tone and gains character with use. Simple, durable, and rooted in craft, this bento box brings quiet beauty to daily life. It’s well suited for those who value traditional design and sustainable living.

Note: Wood naturally expands and contracts with changes in humidity. To prevent damage caused by this movement, there is a small intentional gap between the bottom panel and the side walls of the box. Please use food cups when packing dishes with moisture or sauce.
