A ceramic trinket box with a colorful "tsubotsubo" pattern. It's shaped like a clay bell (dorei), but it's not the typical ceramic dorei often found as souvenirs. It has a lid and appears to be a kogo (incense container), a small container for trinkets, or perhaps a small sweets dish, but the exact purpose is unknown. Diameter of the body: 7.5cm, Height: 8.5cm All measurements are approximate. The "tsubotsubo" pattern is painted with gold and beautiful glaze, so it may be a utensil used in the tea ceremony. ※ The "tsubotsubo" pattern is a distinctive and auspicious design used in the tea ceremony, especially by the three Senke schools (Omotesenke, Urasenke, and Mushakoujisenke).
