Thank you for viewing. This ceramic pickling container with a lid, made by Hisamatsu Kiln, is ideal for preserving food due to its minimal internal temperature fluctuations. The lidded jar is particularly popular for storing miso, pickled plums, and other items. [Notes and Condition] The item was used a few times decades ago and has been stored indoors wrapped in paper. There are scratches on the lid's resting surface and a chip on the outer bottom of the container (see the last three photos). I have also inspected the item, but there may be oversights. Please make your judgment based on the photos. This is a used item, and individual perceptions of the product's condition may vary, so please refrain from purchasing if you are overly concerned about minor imperfections. Shipping will be via courier service, with the item wrapped in paper and cushioned with packing material inside a shipping box. Thank you for your understanding.
