The history of Japanese tinware is ancient. It is said that a tin water jar was discovered in the ruins of an ancient city in the Egyptian dynasty as far back as 1500 BC.
The unique luster and low melting point of tin have been used for a long time in various countries around the world for the production of vessels and other items.
In Japan, around the 7th to 9th centuries, tinware was introduced by envoys to Sui and Tang China, and several pieces are preserved in the Nara Shosoin Treasure House, which is also famous as a treasure repository.
Since ancient times, tinware was primarily used for sacred sake bottles, sakaki stands, and other religious and Buddhist utensils, as well as for tea caddies and saucers, and was favored by a select few, such as those in the imperial court. However, it became widely used by the general public during the Edo period.
With technological advancements, it became possible to produce all kinds of vessels, including sake vessels, tea sets, tableware, and decorative items, and they became popular in general households.
