Cotton Swab Case

Ryuji Mitani

• Introduction

  I am a Cotton Swab Case. I’m proof that even the smallest details deserve a clean look.

   

• Curator's Notes 

  There was a time when we kept our everyday essentials just as they came, in the clear plastic drugstore packaging. But as our home slowly filled with things we truly love, we started placing even the smallest items in containers that feel intentional. This cotton swab case made from black walnut is one of those small joys.

  It’s smooth, warm to the touch due to the wood, and somehow makes the simple act of reaching for a Q-tip feel considered. I like how the oil finish lets the natural grain of the wood shine through — a reminder that even the most utilitarian objects can be beautiful if stored with care.
