Make a beautiful 20kg chabako tea box, covered and lined with Japanese washi paper, for your home.
A chabako is useful as humidity-proof storage and the lid can be upturned to use as a tray.
The box’s dimensions are approximately 51cm (wide) x 36cm (deep) x 40cm (high).
Class requirements: sharp scissors for cutting wet/dry paper and six 62cm x 92cm sheets of washi paper (or purchase washi in class).
