Wooden chests offer high performance against moisture, mold, and insects: The metal interior completely blocks out moisture and insects, keeping tea leaves and clothing dry even in humid environments.
Odor-proof and airtight: Prevents odor transfer, and the high airtightness of the metal lid preserves the aroma of the contents.
Light-blocking and durable: Blocks light and is more robust than paper, offering high protective performance suitable for long-term storage.
