Cleaning

Wipe the exterior gently with a soft, dry cloth to maintain its lustre.

Avoid abrasive cloths or cleaners, which may scratch the brass surface or damage the tin lining.

The interior should be kept dry at all times—do not wash with water or soap, as this may cause rusting of the tin lining.

If necessary, remove loose tea dust with a dry, soft brush.

Handling & Storage

Keep the canister in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, heat, or moisture.

Avoid storing near strong-smelling items, as brass and tin can absorb aromas over time.

Always close the lid firmly to maintain the airtight seal.

Aging & Patina

Over time, the brass exterior will develop a rich, natural patina—a mark of authenticity and beauty that many collectors treasure.

If you prefer to maintain a bright finish, you may gently polish the brass exterior with a metal-safe polish, taking care to avoid contact with the interior tin lining.
