This is a slipware jar made by Kazunari Yamaguchi (Yamapota), who creates pottery in Ise City, Mie Prefecture. (He apprenticed under Noriyuki Yamamoto at Iwai Kiln in Tottori Prefecture and became independent in 2014.) It has a smooth, glossy, glass-like texture, and the contrast between the dark brown and yellow glaze is very beautiful. It's an elegant piece of slipware. The lid is large and the mouth is wide, making it easy to take things out. It can be used for tea bags, dashi packs, sweets, miso, or small items. *There are no scratches, cracks, or chips. Height: Approximately 13.5cm (including the lid handle) Mouth diameter: Approximately 12.5cm Inner diameter: Approximately 10cm Base: Approximately 10.3cm Please note that these measurements are approximate. *This item is sold to those who understand that it is a pre-owned item that has been stored at home. *The selling price includes approximately 1,000 yen for shipping. #KazunariYamaguchi #Yamapota #IwaiKiln #Slipware #slipwear #Jar #SmallItemContainer #Container #LiddedItem #LiddedWare #PickledPlumContainer #MisoContainer #Tsubo #Container #Artist #Mingei #FolkCrafts #Handmade #Pottery #Ceramics #CeramicArt #Glaze #ArtistMade #Pickles #MisoJar #MisoTsubo #SugarJar #SaltJar #SaltContainer #SugarContainer #MisoContainer #kazunayamaguthi #slipware #mingai #pottery #tougei #jar #tsubo #japanesepottery #jar #container #tsubo #futamono
