Thank you for viewing. This is a lidded jar/container, likely made of heavy pewter. The subdued silver-gray color and the aging texture are attractive, blending well with Japanese modern spaces and traditional-style interiors. With its rounded, beautiful form, it has a presence just by being placed. Because it has a lid, it's suitable for use as a small item container or storage container, and it's also recommended as an interior object for display. There is a marking on the bottom, giving it character as a metal craft item and antique tool. The detailed artist's name and age are unknown, but the construction appears to be solid based on the images. ■ Material: Metal, likely pewter ■ Color: Silver gray ■ Condition: There are small scratches, dullness, and discoloration due to aging, but it is in a condition that can be enjoyed as part of its character. There are no major cracks or damage. This item will be an accent in any space, whether Japanese-style or Western-style. Recommended for those who like antique tools, metal crafts, and antique-style interiors. We will carefully pack and ship it.
