This is a type of sake vessel called a "sakazukidai" (cup stand) made from the Edo period to the Meiji period. Sakazukidai are vessels used to place sake cups on when offering sake to guests, and they are also used as part of kaiseki (traditional multi-course meal) utensils. Blue patterns are painted using a technique called "sometsuke" (blue and white porcelain). The hexagonal faces are decorated with openwork, including shippo (seven treasures) patterns. This type of sakazukidai has characteristics of the Ko-Imari style. Made from the Edo period to the Meiji period, they are also popular as collectibles. ↑ This is the result of a search on Google AI.
