Thank you for viewing. I am selling items that I have stored in my warehouse or purchased at antique fairs. AI automatically generates the descriptions. Please use the images to judge the authenticity yourself as a reference. 1. This beautiful tsubo-gama (cylindrical kettle) by Keiten Takahashi is a masterpiece that combines functionality and artistry as a tea utensil. This tea kettle, which showcases his skills as a Living National Treasure, is made using traditional methods and features a warm texture and sophisticated design. The large-sized pot can boil enough hot water for tea ceremonies, and the lidded design prevents heat from escaping, allowing for efficient use. Furthermore, it is stored in a wooden box, making it convenient for storage and carrying, and enhancing its value as a tea utensil. This tsubo-gama will be an essential item for those who love the tea ceremony. Pottery with age may have distortions, manufacturing flaws (kiln marks), and underfired areas (cracks). These are inherent characteristics, and I do not specifically mention them in the product description. Please carefully check the condition of the item in the images before purchasing. Size W (Width) 17 cm H (Height) 18 cm Mouth 9.5 cm Please forgive any oversight in my amateur inspection of the item. However, I try my best to be thorough. Some items may be sold with stains. Also, the items are sold after only a simple cleaning. Therefore, I have set the price lower. If you have any other questions, please contact me in the comments. I may miss some responses due to the large number of items for sale, but please comment again if that happens. NKK02347
