Thank you for viewing. This is a breathtakingly beautiful incense container by Tohiko Ito, a leading figure in Kasama-yaki pottery and a master of the Nunome technique (cloth-patterned clay). • Features of this work: • Texture of Nunome: The unique "Nunome Saidei" technique expresses a soft, cloth-like texture despite being ceramic. The moist feel when held in the hand is a special pleasure unique to Tohiko's works. • Delicate Painting: The delicate colors of the flowers evoke the gentleness of spring. It will brighten up any space, whether used in a tea ceremony or simply as interior decoration. • For Everyday Enrichment: Perfect not only for tea ceremonies but also as a small container to hold precious accessories or cotton soaked with essential oils, allowing you to enjoy a luxurious fragrance. • Condition: • A complete, unused item that has been carefully stored. • Includes a vibrant yellow fukusa (silk cloth) and a matching box, making it a wonderful gift. • Commitment to Shipping: • As this is a delicate work of art, we use plenty of cushioning material and pack it with utmost care. #TohikoIto #KasamaYaki #NunomeSaidei #IncenseContainer #TeaUtensils #FloralPattern #MasterCraftsman #Mingei #ContemporaryCrafts #CarefulLiving #TreatYourself #JapaneseDecor
