Very cool pair of refinished dovetailed wood crates with tin lining used to ship tea from Japan. The lining was to keep the tea fresh for the long voyage. These crates would be really cool used next to each other as a coffee table and could be used for storage as well or could be great looking side or end tables placed on contemporary metal feet.
