Extremely rare item. Old Karatsu ware Ohaguro (Teeth-blackening) Pot Diameter: 10cm Height: 16cm Rough measurements. Not new. This item was used as an Ohaguro pot. In the Edo period, married women had a custom of blackening their teeth with Ohaguro. This is the pot they used. It is said that they would dispense the Ohaguro from this pot. Now, if you put wildflowers in this pot, it gives a calm atmosphere to your study... Please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for perfection. We apologize, but we do not accept returns.
