This piece features a pattern of arrow feathers (yahazu) in indigo blue sometsuke (underglaze). It can be used not only as a soba noodle dipping sauce container, but also as a small bowl or dessert cup, making it a versatile item. As it is an antique, there are variations in the cobalt pigment and glaze, as well as some discoloration. There are also some chips. Antique ceramics may have warps and imperfections (kiln marks) from the manufacturing process. Please appreciate these as part of the charm. For those who understand and appreciate antiques and vintage items, thank you. Instant purchase is welcome. Diameter: Approximately 7.2 cm Height: Approximately 5.3 cm
