We sell rice storage containers made of natural paulownia wood, ``Yonekura (for 10kg)''. This is a paulownia rice bowl made by a joinery craftsman. Polished rice gradually loses moisture and begins to oxidize, resulting in a loss of flavor. The ``Komegura'' makes use of the special paulownia wood that controls humidity and has insect repellent properties, creating a good environment for rice and providing delicious rice to the table. This high-quality rice bin is lightweight and slim in design, does not take up much space, and comes with a handle for measuring. Craftsmen's skill and care are taken into account in every detail, making this rice bin a masterpiece that you will want to use for years to come, allowing you to use up every last grain of delicious rice.
