First Generation Honma Takusai's Mizusashi (Water Jar) Works First Generation Honma Takusai (1812-1891) Born in Okubo Village, Kariwa District, Echigo Province (present-day Kashiwazaki City). After the Meiji Restoration in 1854, the need for cannon manufacturing diminished due to the signing of the Treaty of Peace and Amity between Japan and the United States, the Anglo-Japanese Treaty of Amity and Commerce, and the Treaty of Saint Petersburg. He married into the Honma Rokubei family in Sawane Komachi and began casting. He started producing items such as temple bells, lanterns, vases, and stationery. He focused on the production of wax-molded cast copperware (vases, stationery, Buddhist altar fittings, incense burners, etc.) as fine art and crafts. His original speckled purple copper products (using a method to create an oxide film) were highly praised for their refined beauty and exquisite technique, and he received numerous awards at domestic and international exhibitions. Thus, Sado's wax-molded casting was established through his efforts, and it flourished the most from the Meiji to the Taisho eras. Features include reddish-brown tea kettles, turtle-shaped lids, and carved decorations. Appraised by an antique dealer. - Type: Mizusashi (Water Jar) - Material: Copper - Decoration: Carving - Lid Design: Turtle shape - Color: Reddish-brown Thank you for viewing.
