A leading master of Japan, known for his unique and captivating world of mosaic and colored glazes. In the early Taisho era, the first generation, driven by his passion, built a climbing kiln by inviting a Kyoto ware craftsman to his current location and called himself Umezan. His residence had many plum trees of various ages, and the scenery, ripe fruits, and their rich aroma still evoke deep feelings.

There are no signs of use, and no noticeable dirt, scratches, cracks, chips, or breaks. There is no original box. It will be carefully wrapped in bubble wrap to prevent breakage and shipped in a cardboard box. Please check the condition in the images. I would like to pass it on to someone who will appreciate and use it. The color in the first photo is closest to the actual item. (It was photographed in natural light, but it may appear slightly darker.) The actual product may appear slightly different in color depending on your monitor environment and shooting conditions. Thank you for your understanding. As this is an amateur inspection, there may be oversights. Please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned in any way. We appreciate your understanding of home storage. J 0075020221-0088422080
