The history of tin is particularly ancient. Relics dating back as early as 1500 BC have been found in Egypt, and also in the Three Kingdom period of China. It was first made in Japan 1300 years ago. It boasts a proud tradition, with several pieces preserved in the Masakura Temple of Nara, which has been recorded as a world heritage site. It has also been said that it was used as part of the Japanese official diplomatic delegations sent to China during the Sui dynasty. Originally used in such high-class and elegant affairs such as in the middle of a Buddhist altar and within an imperial court, during the latter half of the Edo period its beauty and practicality became available to the general public as well. During the present age it enjoys a wide variety of uses, such as a food container for general family use, a drink cup, flower vase, or ornamental use. Osaka Suzuki proudly brings you Suzuki tin, the "Representative Container of Japan" a container that's popular overseas as well. |
