Please take a moment to read my profile before purchasing. Purchased at the Kobo-san antique market at To-ji Temple every month the year before last. It's an antique shop I always visit. When they were lined up, they weren't like the photos; they were covered in dust, so much so that you couldn't even see the hammered marks, haha. But the shape was sleek and without distortion, so I was somehow drawn to it and bought it. I heard it was quite old, from the Showa era. I couldn't read the mark on the bottom at the time, but I looked it up and it seems to be a product from Kinseido, a shop that handled copper products. Several items were also listed on other sites, but the manufacturer itself seems to be gone now. I was surprised when I washed it. Of course, there are signs of use on the inside and scratches on the bottom, and a few slight dents, but the patterns on the top and bottom of the body, and the hammered marks in between, are very fine and have a luster, and the design is very carefully made. I've seen various mizutsugi (water pitchers) in tea ceremony lessons, and I thought, "This is quite a good one." The bottom is bumpy, but it doesn't wobble. Slight lifting on the lid. The string is securely attached without any looseness and fits perfectly. The lid is almost without distortion and fits almost perfectly. There is some copper verdigris due to aging in a few places. No water leakage. I enjoyed displaying it as it is with other types of copper kettles, and using it as a flower vase for wildflowers and small flowers. It had a nice atmosphere. It seems like it would also be good for dried flowers. Since it's old, I don't think it's suitable for practical use. It's just an antique, an interior item. If you like old things, or for shop displays, etc., would you like to use it? We will take measures to prevent damage and ship via Rakuraku Mercari 60 size.
