Magewappa Original

  

The Magewappa Original  is a chic, traditional Japanese bento box that has been handcrafted out of Japanese cedar wood. These works of art have been commissioned by Bento&Co - so you cannot find them anywhere else. We are very proud of this original product, and we want to help support and promote the amazing artisans that create these products. 

Note that this is a genuine Odate Magewappa box, made to the highest standards. You'll notice the difference immediately from inferior versions sold by other companies, when you touch the silky smooth surface and see the workmanship. 

Product Care

Made from sustainably farmed sugi (Japanese cedar) wood. Since the wood is treated just with a thin layer of Polyurethane paint on the outside of the box for its finish, some care should be taken with this box: 

• Wash in lukewarm water.
• Do not use dishwasher detergent unless absolutely necessary.
• We recommend packing food that may stain the wood in a separate container, or in bento cups.
• Use a gentle sponge, nothing abrasive. 
• Do not leave immersed in water. 
• After washing, wipe off any excess water with a soft cloth, then leave the box open to dry completely. Replace the lid only after it has completely dried out, after a day or so. 
• With proper care, this box will last for many years. 
• Made in Japan, in Odate, Akita Prefecture.
