For a century and a half, the Japanese Yagi family has mastered the craft of making tea cans in their workshop in Kyoto. The beautiful coffee-table book 'Kaikado,' published by ERG Media (known from ''Type 7 Guide to Tokyo'<\/a>\u00a0and ''Artifacts'<\/a>), celebrates the remarkable milestone of their 150th anniversary, recounts the family's history and highlights the painstaking process involved in the creation of the world's most iconic chazutsu.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Chazutsu means tea tin or tea container in Japanese and usually describes the product group of traditionally made tea cans made of cherry wood or cherry tree bark, which are also called kabazaiku. The term kabazaiku is composed of the words kaba (meaning birch) and saiku (meaning handicraft). However, chazutsu is also used to describe metal tea cans.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

An uncompromising commitment to quality<\/strong>
\nKaikado's three distinct covers represent the copper, brass and pewter for which the brand is known. The chapters are separated by tactile paper with a rich texture that reflects Kaikado's distinctive packaging, and the open back binding - often seen in Japanese publishing houses - underscores the deep connection between the book and the craft tradition it celebrates.<\/p>\n

Step inside the workshop, meet the artisans who perpetuate a long tradition of unwavering commitment to quality by telling their own stories, and discover the tools that have been used to write Kaikado's history since 1875.<\/p>\n
