Shupatto Foldable Tote Large
Our favorite tote now in a larger size. Cleverly designed in Japan, meet the Shupatto: the “one-pull” foldable bag. A perfect replacement for single-plastic bags, the slim-profiled Shupatto folds down neatly, so it’s easy to take on the go to carry groceries, shopping and baked goods. To open, the folded accordion pleats expand into a roomy bag; to quickly close, pull both ends of the bag until taut pleats form again, then roll back into a coil for storage. The Shupatto is made from lightweight (just 69 grams) durable material, too; when tested by the makers, the pleats still folded perfectly after 100 cycles in a washing machine. And the quick-drying material can handle wet or messy items, too. The Ougi print features a traditional Japanese folding hand fan. The Sakura print features a classic cherry blossom motif.

Marna Good Lock Container Rack and Containers
Designed in Japan, this storage rack and countertop salt and sugar containers keep seasonings fresh and countertops organized with their clever design. Each steel rack snugly accommodates two containers (in white) on the bottom shelf, leaving the top shelf open for other spice jars, tools or condiments, to help keep countertops or tables organized. And aach bin comes with a silicone rubber gasket that forms an airtight seal to help keep moisture out. The sleek bins open with a single touch of a button—even when tightly closed—so you can season without stopping what you’re doing. Each container holds roughly 12.5 ounces of salt, sugar or spices.
Marna Silicone Piggy Steamer Lid
Designed for steaming food, the Marna Piggy Steamer from Japan is a silicone lid that forms a tight seal over pots and containers, vents excess steam through its snout and is easy to lift by its ear-shaped handles. Use it for perfect stovetop steaming, splatter-free microwave cooking or even refrigerator storage in place of plastic wrap. It's more compact and flexible than metal pot lids and fits any vessel less than 8.5 inches in diameter, with the silicone locking in moisture for effective steaming; smartly designed holes in the pig snout act as vents to avoid built-up pressure. When you're done using it, you can throw the lid in a kitchen drawer for storage without worrying about finding a spot on the shelf.
