◆ Kazuji Sato, Popular Crab Artwork One Oribe-yaki Tokkuri (sake bottle), with a matching box ◆ Size: Height 13.5cm x Width 10cm, holds 300ml when full. Can hold a generous amount of sake. ◆ This shape of tokkuri is rare in Kazuji's works, and was purchased from a pottery shop about 10 years ago. It has been used infrequently. ◆ The condition of the artwork is very good. The tokkuri has a plump shape, and the painting is carefully done. The color has changed over time due to pouring sake. The tokkuri's color and luster have improved, adding depth. (The crack at the bottom of the tokkuri was there from the beginning. It was purchased as a Grade A item with a box and signature.) There are no leaks. ◆ This item is available for immediate purchase. ※ Even if there are comments in progress, the transaction will be made with the first buyer. Please understand.
