Thank you for viewing! Nambu Tekki (Southern Ironware) Togyu (Bullfighting) Cow Tetsubin (Iron Kettle) Kyusu (Teapot) Tea Ceremony Utensils Ironware Traditional Craft Size (excluding lid and handle) Height: Approximately 11cm, Diameter: Approximately 9.4cm This is an iron kettle from "Nambu Tekki," a traditional Japanese craft. With its rounded, soft form and a design of a cow on the side, this piece has a rustic warmth within its dignified presence. The thick cast iron surface unique to Nambu Tekki excels in heat retention and is said to mellow the water, making it a beloved item since ancient times. This item has been stored for a long time at my grandmother's house. *This item shows rust on the inside and bottom due to years of use. It has an aesthetic appeal as an ornamental piece or interior decoration, and you can enjoy the flavor of aging. If you intend to use it, please consider it with an understanding of the characteristics of rust. Shipping will be via Mercari delivery. #NambuTekki #Togyu #Cow #Tetsubin #Kyusu #TeaCeremonyUtensils #Ironware #TraditionalCraft Type...Tea Ceremony Utensils Main Material...Iron
