This is a sake vessel I purchased at an antique market. Of course, it can be used as a sake vessel, but it has various other uses. It was used as a flower vase in a shop in Tokyo. It had a really nice atmosphere. There is a chip on the lip. With this type of vessel, you pour slowly, so it inevitably drips. The lower part of the lip is chipped and sharp, so it may be less likely to drip. However, the best recommendation is as a teapot skipper. They are also available at 100-yen shops, so if you plan to use it practically as a tokkuri (sake bottle), please consider it. There is the character "西" (nishi - west) on the bottom. Perhaps the previous owner. It's a beautiful character, so it doesn't bother me much. Size: Height: Approximately 13 cm Width: Approximately 12 cm (including the lip) "Karara" is for search purposes; this product is not a "karara" (a type of sake bottle).
