This is a natural wooden rice container, handcrafted from scratch by a craftsman. It seems my grandmother purchased it from a specialty store a long time ago. I heard it cost around 40,000 yen at the time of purchase, and it's a high-quality item with a sturdy construction. The wood grain is beautiful, and I don't think you see many well-made wooden rice containers like this nowadays. It has been stored for a long time, so there are some minor signs of use, but I hope to pass it on to someone who appreciates the natural texture of the wood.
