★★Yōhen Ceramic Umbrella Stand★★ Size: Approximately 28cm outer diameter x 42cm height [Inner diameter of the mouth: Approximately 18cm] [Outer diameter of the base: Approximately 22cm] Color: Black Japanese and Western style patterns Hyō pattern ★★What is Yōhen?★★ When a large amount of iron-containing black glaze is thickly applied to a brown base and fired in a high-temperature kiln, the iron content in the glaze can change, creating flowing crystal patterns. [There is a Yōhen Tenmoku tea bowl, a national treasure of Japan, and it can sometimes occur by chance depending on the clay, glaze, climate, and firing temperature in the kiln.] ★★Defective areas★★ There are rough areas in the finish, such as shrinkage marks from high-temperature firing on the top opening of the umbrella stand and on the outer parts, but the Yōhen Tenmoku pattern on the entire umbrella stand is not very noticeable, and it is very beautiful, and there are no problems in use. [Please check the images.] ★★Sales points of the ceramic umbrella stand★★ ① It stores wet umbrellas on rainy days, so the entrance floor stays clean and tidy. ② It does not rot even when wet. ③ It does not rust like metal. ④ It does not change color like wood. ⑤ It becomes clean when washed with water when dirty. ⑥ The three-dimensional design handcrafted by skilled craftsmen has a very luxurious feel. ⑦ It suits both Western and Japanese style entrances. ⑧ It can hold about 10 umbrellas. ★★Please note★★ We are very sorry, but please refrain from purchasing if you are overly sensitive.
