Some containers hold things. The Hako Soji does that and then sits on your shelf looking like someone made a very deliberate decision about what a container should be — because they did. Designed by Mute Studio and hand turned in the Yamanaka Onsen lacquerware tradition, the richly colored red lid and natural wood base are simple enough to feel inevitable. At home on a desk, a bathroom shelf, or a kitchen counter. Three sizes; one very considered decision about what a container should look like. Made to order for Wms&Co., quantities are limited.

Founded in Ishikawa in 1930 by Unomatsu Hata, Hatashikki is a family-run business now led by Hata Manabu — three generations into the craft, with their original handcraft wood and urushi lacquer techniques intact.

Part of our Japanese Minimalism collection.

John ★★★★★

The largest one is perfect for keeping my charging cables tidy, and the wood grain is so beautiful I sometimes just stop and look at it. All three sizes stack neatly, which saved me from buying a separate organizer. Exactly the calm, intentional look I wanted for my workspace.

Eli U. ★★★★★

Picked up the three sizes for my desk odds and ends — the wood grain has a warmth that my plastic organizers just couldn't match. The largest one fits my charging cables perfectly.

Benjamin R. ★★★★★

The sliding lid fits so perfectly that it feels like a tiny satisfaction machine. I bought the medium size for my desk and it makes my pens look like they belong in a museum.
