Really impressed by the craftsmanship of this tea caddy. The hand-glazed detail sets it apart from typical tin containers. I use it daily and it definitely keeps my green tea fresher. The color is just a touch lighter than photo, but still very pretty.

Stylish and practical, the Essencora Lichen Tea Caddy fits perfectly in my tea drawer. The lid slides on smoothly. My one critique is that the caddy is slightly smaller than I realized, so itβs best for everyday blends rather than bulk storage.

Purchased the Essencora Lichen Tea Caddy for loose leaf tea storage. The design is understated with a soft green glaze that nicely mimics natural lichen. The sealing lid keeps my teas fresh, though it could benefit from a slightly tighter fit. It looks great on my countertop.

The tea caddy is an elegant addition to my kitchen. I appreciate the texture on the ceramic, which feels lovely to the touch. Holds a good amountβabout 100 grams of tea leaves. I only wish there were matching canisters for other pantry items as well.
