Thank you for taking the time to look at my listing from among many others. Please read the profile before purchasing. This is a Zokoku-nuri tray from Sanuki lacquerware. I purchased it a few years ago for about 18,000 yen. After purchase, I used it several times and there are scratches, stains, and other signs of use. I have kept it at home because I no longer have the opportunity to use it. The box is included, but it has scratches, dents, and considerable dirt. The instruction manual also shows stains and discoloration. Please understand the above before purchasing. I have carefully checked the item before listing it, but there may be oversights, but I have no ill intentions. Please purchase only if you understand. Please refrain from purchasing if you are nervous about the condition. Size: Diameter: Approximately 30 cm, Height: 1 cm Please note that there may be some errors due to amateur measurements. Made of wood, finished with genuine lacquer. From online: Introducing a round tray made from natural wood from Sanuki lacquerware. The base is made by rubbing natural lacquer and repeatedly applying layers of lacquer. "Zokoku-nuri" is named after Tamakaji Zokoku, the founder of Kagawa lacquerware. The base is processed on a potter's wheel, the wood is hardened, and raw lacquer is repeatedly brushed on. Then, Makomo (a perennial grass of the Poaceae family) found in the stems of plants growing in clusters on riverbanks and ponds is sprinkled on the lacquer, and further lacquer is applied to finish. As you use it for many years, the luster and unique shadows will appear, and the taste will become more refined. Zokoku-nuri is very durable and can be used in everyday life. The rough potter's wheel marks applied to the entire tray express a unique design, providing a handmade warmth and also acting as a non-slip surface. The "Horoku" (焙烙) shape refers to a shallow, unglazed earthenware pot used for roasting food over a fire. The name is given because the rim is raised and the shape is similar. The rim is made higher than a regular tray, so it prevents the dishes on top from falling, so you can use it with peace of mind. Due to the materials used, this is a valuable item that may become difficult to produce in the future. The simple design that makes the most of the material's texture will not get old and can be used for a long time. Setouchi Triennale, traditional crafts, lacquerware, Kagawa
