I love Yachimun pottery and bought this piece about three years ago at a shop on Kokusai Street in Okinawa. I used it a few times after I bought it, but it was a bit too big for me, and it's been displayed in my cupboard since then. The pottery by Mr. Yamashiro is beautiful. I'm okay with it being used, even if it's used. If there's anyone who would like to continue using it... Please check the condition and size in the photos. It's used. There may be scratches. Please refrain from purchasing if you are at all concerned.
