The "Circle Box," a collaboration between Marukoge, a renowned woodworking shop in Hida-Takayama known for its highly finished oval boxes, and Playmountain, an interior shop in Sendagaya, Tokyo, is gaining popularity. The perfectly circular shape, slightly larger than the original oval box, is inspired by hat boxes of the past and boasts excellent storage capacity for clothing and small items. The M and L sizes come with leather straps to secure the lid. Playmountain suggests using the large size for wine glasses. The beauty in the details and the exquisite craftsmanship are truly striking.
