【Product】Nanbu Iron Kettle, Sangendo Keisen (Sentaro Kumagai) Signature, Cherry Bark Cylindrical, Usable This is an antique iron kettle I received along with a hibachi. It's a masterpiece said to last 100 years. I'm offering it for sale to collectors or those who will use it. 【Description】 A Nanbu iron kettle by Keisen (Sentaro Kumagai), a caster affiliated with Nanbu Sangendo. This piece is a testament to technical mastery, achieving the difficult cherry bark (sakurakawa) texture in a straight, cylindrical form, which is prone to imperfections. It's a high-quality work from the Showa era Nanbu iron kettles, not intended for mass production. The body's surface displays an irregular, natural cast that resembles cherry tree bark, with no two pieces alike. The spout and handle attachment are stable, indicating excellent craftsmanship for practical use. The "Keisen" signature and the characters for Sangendo are visible on the side, confirming its authenticity. The interior is primarily black rust, stable and without leaks, in good condition for practical use. It's a iron kettle that can be used daily for hot water or boiling water, not just for display. The understated design blends naturally with tea ceremony settings, as well as folk art and modern Japanese spaces. Sentaro Kumagai (Nanbu Keisen) ・Mr. Sentaro Kumagai, also known as Nanbu Keisen, is a master craftsman holding a "First Class Certificate" awarded only to artisans who meet the strict quality standards of Nanbu ironware. ・Mr. Kumagai's works utilize materials and techniques that are extremely rare today. Iron Kettle, Cherry Bark Cylindrical ・Unlike the usual Arare pattern, it expresses natural, organic irregularities, just like a real cherry tree. ・This complex pattern is created by hand, one by one, when making the mold (igata). The texture, which feels like the warmth of wood despite being metal, is due to Mr. Kumagai's outstanding descriptive ability and technique. ・The lid's "knob (tsumi)" is shaped like a cherry blossom bud, further enhancing the "cherry" theme. 【Specifications】 ・Size (approx.): Diameter 14cm, Height 22cm (including handle) ・Weight (approx.): 2kg (including lid) ・Capacity (approx.): 1.2L (1.4L when full) ※Please understand that it may be sold out as it is also listed elsewhere.
