Containers with wooden cover

Wooden cover

— a wooden lid is more commonly found on kitchen containers that are kept in plain sight and opened every day because wood looks natural and blends well with a "homey" kitchen. Unlike bamboo, it usually reacts more to moisture and temperature changes, so it's important not to leave such a lid wet, not to soak it, and not to keep it near steam from the stove, or it may swell and fit worse. However, with careful use, wood retains its pleasant texture for a long time and doesn't slip in hands when the container needs to be opened and closed frequently. A practical scenario is storing tea or sugar in such a container on a shelf away from the sink and wiping the lid dry after use.
