| 5.75" x 5.75". Excellent condition, no damage. Marked numerically in Japanese on the bottom. This lovely small tokkuri has a delightful design of cherry or plum blossoms on one side, and perhaps bamboo on the other. We come across these occasionally in Japan but haven't seen one with such a nice design as this one. These originate from either Seto or Shigaraki, where large amounts of folk and utilitarian ceramics were made in the 19th century. An attractive piece unusual to see outside of Japan. | ||
