Mokume Koban Brown 1 Tier Bento Box
Shipping rates: Orders under $30: $7 Orders between $30 and $75: $8.90 Orders above $75: $5.90 We only ship within Australia at this time.
With a coating finish somewhere between satin and matte, you'd almost think this was a wooden bento box at first glance. The 'Koban' or oval shaped design is reminiscent of a traditional Japanese wappa bento box, but with the everyday convenience of being dishwasher and microwave friendly (except the lid).
The side latches allow you to secure the bento box without elastic lunch bands, and the internal divider lets you separate and organize your hard prepped meal. With an 800ml capacity, it can comfortably store an adult sized meal portion, but is a great option for growing kids who want a more mature look.
The silicone seal under the periphery of the lid secures the contents and easily stores wet foods without leakage (but not liquid).
