These are lacquered bowls made by the long-established Yamanaka lacquerware shop, Gato Mikio Shoten, using a potter's wheel (rokuro) technique. The rounded, heartwarming form of these bowls is impressive. They feel gentle in the hand and are perfect for everyday use. It's lovely to have a set for the whole family, creating a sense of unity, or you can choose them as your own "My Bowl." The soup bowl has a full capacity of approximately 360ml. It's the perfect size for ochazuke (rice with tea), miso soup with plenty of ingredients, tonjiru (pork and vegetable soup), or oshiruko (sweet red bean soup). Not too small and not too large, they fit comfortably in the hand and are easy to use for both men and women. The bowls convey the gentle warmth of wood, and the name of the wood is written on the back. Compared to Gato Mikio Shoten's "MATEVARI" series, they can be stacked and stored compactly. I purchased these new at the store for guests. I think I used them once or twice. They were stored in a dedicated cupboard in a pantry with climate control. There are no noticeable scratches, let alone chips or cracks, and they are in good condition. Because they are not factory-made, the patterns and sizes vary slightly. Please note that no two are exactly alike. *For entertaining purposes, we also have many rice bowls, chawan (tea bowls), and soup bowls. We will offer a discount for combined shipping. #Search for Gon Gato Mikio Shoten Japanese tableware soup bowl Gato Mikio Shoten Size: 11 x 7.2cm 12 x 5.5cm Capacity: Soup bowl 360 ml (full) Material: Natural wood (cherry) Finish: Urushi wiping lacquer Production area: Ishikawa Prefecture Price: 6,600 yen ■What is Yamanaka Lacquerware? The history of Yamanaka lacquerware began in the Azuchi-Momoyama period when a group of woodworkers moved from Echizen Province to the village of Masago in Yamanaka Onsen, Kaga City. The area has a moderate humidity throughout the year, making it suitable for drying lacquer, and it has long been known as a lacquerware production center. ■How the Wood is Cut The delicate woodcraft of Yamanaka lacquerware is supported by the way the wood is cut. In many production areas, "yokogi-tori" (horizontal wood cutting) is used, where logs are cut into planks to make the wood base. On the other hand, in Yamanaka, "tateki-tori" (vertical wood cutting) is used, where the wood is cut into rings to make the wood base. Because the wood is cut in the direction it grows, it is less prone to warping and twisting, making it suitable for precise processing. 《Almost New》【Gato Mikio Shoten】Yamanaka Lacquerware Soup Bowl Rice Bowl Tea Bowl Cherry Old Shop
