MacKenzie-Childs Courtly Check Canister

Yes, the silicone seal creates a secure fit that helps preserve the freshness of dry goods like tea bags, sugar, or spices. It is designed for standard pantry storage rather than long-term vacuum sealing.

No, the canister should not be placed in the dishwasher. To maintain the hand-painted finish and the integrity of the bronzed stainless steel rim, we recommend wiping it clean with a soft, damp cloth or hand-washing gently with mild soap.

With a 14-ounce capacity, this is the smallest size in the collection. It is best suited for small essentials like cotton balls, paperclips, tea bags, or a small stash of candies rather than bulk pantry items.

Because each piece is hand-painted, you should expect slight variations in the color-dragged check pattern. These unique differences are part of the charm and authenticity of MacKenzie-Childs craftsmanship.

The glass knob is durable for daily use, but it should be handled with care to avoid chipping or cracking. It is securely attached to the lid, which is made of the same heavy-gauge enameled steel as the base.
