This is not a general Gen'emon work purchased at domestic department stores. I think there is almost no opportunity to see it, even now. ◽️ At the time, long-established department stores held grand events such as dinner concerts by chartering passenger ships in Tokyo Bay and long-established hotels, exhibiting and selling art, kimonos, jewelry, and watches. It was an era when sales representatives also had a strong spirit. It is a work that caught my eye, spotlighted in a showcase. ◽️ A masterpiece that sets it apart from the Gen'emon works, which are called large vases when they exceed 30cm in height. Because even now and in the past, they rarely make works close to 50cm in the bag-shaped works of Sakaida Kakiemon, Imaizumi Imaemon, and Gen'emon Tatebayashi, including Living National Treasures. ✴️ Although it has been displayed to some extent at exhibitions, it is almost unused. There is dust and wood chips for protection inside the vase. There are scratches and stains on the wooden box due to long-term storage. ✴️ Please only purchase if you can understand after enlarging and confirming the images. #Ryotei (high-class Japanese restaurant) #Kaiseki (multi-course Japanese meal) #Kaiseki (formal Japanese dinner) #JapaneseTableware
