A long-necked Tokkuri (sake bottle) made in Kasama in the 19th century. The entire piece is covered in a milky white glaze, with a thin green glaze applied to the mouth and neck. This work has a refined yet refreshing impression, and I think it would look great used as a flower vase. There is a small chip on the mouth.
