Knowledge Encyclopedia of Pottery, Glassware, and Lacquerware: Understanding How to Choose, Use, and Enjoy Japanese Tableware Shufu to Seikatsu Sha Published in 1993 I've only flipped through it once or twice, and it has been stored at home for a long time. The spine has become discolored and the color has faded. Otherwise, there are no noticeable stains or damage, and it is in good condition. It introduces the artists of the time and famous tableware stores, so there is some outdated information, but about two-thirds of the book is enjoyable with a focus on photographs. For those who understand that this is a used item, thank you.
