The original box cannot be found, so please understand that it will be sent in a different box. My parent runs a pottery shop, but they are closing soon and are clearing out the inventory.

Although unused, it has been stored in the shop, so it is listed as "Like New." Please understand. Tea Ceremony, Tea Ceremony Utensils, Tea Bowl, Tea Utensil, Matcha Tea Bowl "Mokubei" refers to Aoki Mokubei, a master of Kyo-yaki who contributed to the revival of Kutani-yaki in the late Edo period, and his painting style. It is characterized by a gorgeous and warm style with a red base and Chinese figures (Karako) painted in five colors, and is a popular style even today. He was invited to the Kaga domain and contributed to the revival of Kutani-yaki at the Kasugayama kiln, and its design is inherited as "Mokubei style" by many kilns even now.
