Korean Heritage Series_#4 찬합 Chanhap (An Old Wooden Lunchbox)
'찬합 (Chan-hap)' means a lunchbox in Korean.  (This word is an old Korean word. It is not commonly used now)

Koreans started to make Chan-hap in the late Joseon Dynasty. 
These types of lunchboxes were very common in East Asia at that time, and each country developed their unique style.
This Chanhap is based on one of the Chanhaps made in the late Joseon Dynasty. 
You can simply take off the cover by sliding it up. Inside the box, there are four individual boxes which are food containers.
However, not all the Chanhaps had the same packages. Some Chanhaps had a section for a bottle.
The holes on the cover and the back side of the chanhap body are for ventilation.
