Japanese Antique OpenWork Tsuba Katana Samurai Sword Guard Iron Rare Star Design ■ Condition: Antique USED■Shows signs of age including dirt, scratches. ■ [Hoken-tei] Tea Ceremony Utensil - Flat Natsume (Tea Caddy) with Crane Eating Pine Makie Design, Vermillion, Wooden, Made by Minekiyo, with Original BoxThis is a vermillion-lacquered flat natsume (tea caddy).I tried to research the artist's background but couldn't find any information.Judging from the lacquer finish, it appears to be either Yamanaka-nuri or Kaga-nuri style.The makie design of the crane eating pine needles is very carefully executed, with beautiful gold coloring that matches well with the vermillion lacquer, giving it a very elegant appearance.The makie design is raised, which you can feel when touching it.The dimensions are approximately 8cm in diameter and 5.3cm in height, and it comes with its original box.There are no noticeable scratches or stains on the body, and no chips or cracks.It can be used in any school of tea ceremony, regardless of style.While the crane eating pine design itself is not seasonal, as it features a crane, it's perfectly suitable for tea ceremonies from now through the coming season.
