IFUJI for A&S
Oval box #4
SPECIAL
The Oval box #4 (Canterbury), is made in a A&S exclusive material using a deep black walnut wood. This series reproduces the 20th century pattern of the Canterbury community, which is considered the standard model among Shaker Oval boxes. Most parts of the production are done by hand, and the delicate joints, known as swallowtails, are hand-cut by skilled craftsmen. The copper nails used to fasten the swallowtail are made in the U.S.A. using 19th-century machines to produce nails. Vegetable oil based with linseed oil and beeswax wax are used for the paint, to be environmentally safe for the body. The inside of the body is unpainted intentionally so the wood does not lose its properties to adjust to humidity. On the lower part of the back of the box there is a number indicating the size of the box and an "ARTS&SCIENCE” branded stamp. Six different sizes are available, including Oval box #4.

*You cannot choose the expression of wood grain on this site. If there is a directly managed store nearby, we recommend that you check the actual product at the store in advance.
*The inside of the box is not painted intentionally so the wood does not lose its properties to adjust to humidity. Oil applied to the outside of the box may occasionally seep through to the inside of the box, but this is not a defect.
*If wet or easily soiled items are placed in the box, stains may remain. Please note that this product is not suitable for storing food.
*Since all of the products are made by making the most of the characteristics of natural wood, there are individual differences in the grain, color, knots, and other characteristics of each item. Please understand this as the characteristics and texture of the product before purchasing.
*No special care is required, but if you feel that the luster has diminished, wax can be applied to the wood to restore its moist luster. Since wax has water-repellent and stain-preventing effects, it is recommended to apply it once every six months.
*Do not store in direct sunlight.
*Please also avoid using the product in excessively dry locations.
*Please be careful not to expose the box to water.
