Product Details
Condition: Stored for a long time. The item is in very beautiful condition as shown in the images, with no noticeable scratches on the main body. However, please understand that there may be some minor scuffs due to long-term storage.

Regarding the copper plate, copper reacts with oxygen and moisture in the air to form a thin protective layer called an oxide film on its surface. This may appear as dirt. Even if polished, the material will change in this way due to its nature. The changes will continue to occur as you use it. Please enjoy these changes as part of its character and history.

Proper Usage
As a Low Table: It can be used as a substantial low table for everyday use.
Using the Hearth: Set up a trivet, river sand, pebbles, or ash in the hearth and enjoy a traditional experience, such as boiling water in a kettle. Absolutely do not use for bonfires or BBQs.

About the Lid: As shown in image 10, the bottom corner opposite the hand grip is beveled. When the lid is closed, pressing down firmly on the lid with your thumb from above will lift it due to leverage. Please avoid prying it open with your fingernails or similar tools. When using fire, remove the lid and place the wooden frame over the hearth. (The structure is designed to be a tight fit, but if it is difficult to insert, try swapping the positions of the wooden frame parts.)

Care:
Wood Parts: For daily care, wipe with a soft dry cloth or a well-wrung-out damp cloth. To maintain the luster of the lacquer, we recommend placing it away from direct sunlight.
