Kaikado was established in 1875, shortly after Japan opened its doors to the rest of the world. with this came the import of tinplate from England. tin was used for the plating of steel, and was considered a fashion-able foreign-made item. in the Edo era, canisters made from tin were a commonplace means of storage for tea, as were jars made from china or earthenware. it was the company's founder, Kiyosuke, who first designed the tin tea caddy. large pasta caddy 30 x 9cm Show more
