It's compact, with a diameter of 12.5 cm and a height of 6 cm. The description says it's Aizu-nuri lacquerware. It has a beautiful glossy finish. Although it's unused, there's a scratch on the brown one, which I've shown in the photos. I think it would be a calming design to have in a ryokan, hotel, or your home. How about using it for serving sweets? The box has some sun damage, so please consider it as packaging material. I will put it in the box, then in a cardboard box, and ship it.
