This is a rare vase from Rinpoosya, run by the descendants of Kenji Miyazawa, located in Hanamaki City, Iwate Prefecture. I purchased it about 20 years ago and have kept it at home after using it once or twice. It features a message from Kenji Miyazawa, "The solar system is..." written in blue letters, and the back has a distinctive illustration of an owl and the word "Rinpoo". It is a ceramic, square-shaped vase. - Design: Square vase - Material: Ceramic - Color: White - Decoration: Design with blue lettering - Character: Owl illustration - Opening: Square opening - Size: Hand-held size Thank you for looking.
