누에 (tea companion/object) A playful figure that lives on the tea tray. Traditionally known as a “다우(tea companion),” it is not an essential tool, but a small object that makes the tea ritual more personal and enjoyable. It may be gently splashed with tea, gradually developing its own character over time. Tin 58 x 15 mm | 2.28 x 0.59 in Tin is a soft metal with a silvery appearance. In its metallic form, tin is non-toxic and resistant to corrosion. However, it may be affected by acids and salt, so please use with care. Avoid using it with hot foods whenever possible, and do not use it in a microwave. If the surface becomes dirty, clean it with a mild detergent and rinse with water. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth as soon as possible before storing. As tin is a soft metal, please handle with care to avoid impact. If the piece becomes bent due to dropping or strong force, it may be gently reshaped by applying gradual pressure. Show more
