Superb Antique Japanese Seto Chaire or Tea Caddy
An interesting tea ceremony 'Katatsuki' chaire or tea caddy, complete with its shifuku or silk storage bag, dating to the early 20th. This Katatsuki cha-ire is of the tall square-shoulder type. A rich honey brown glaze with umber accents around the body typical of Seto chaire. The textured bone or antler lid is gold lined and exhibits a slight yellowing through age. The foot is unglazed with the base featuring the typical string-cut pattern, dark through years of use. Overall condition is excellent for age. The shifuku or storage bag is probably a later addition.Dimensions: 3" x 2 1/2". An excellent addition to any serious collection of teaware or for use by the tea practitioner.
