This is a small box made from cherry bark, a traditional craft from Kakunodate City in Akita Prefecture. It features the natural, beautiful wood grain of cherry bark, with a design on the surface depicting the moon and two rabbits.
As you use cherry bark craftwork, the color deepens, and the shine becomes richer over time. Each piece is carefully handmade, crafted to fully bring out the unique character of the wood bark. Since no two pieces of bark are exactly the same, every item has a distinct pattern, making each one truly one-of-a-kind.
