She has become elderly and no longer uses these items, so I will be gradually listing them while organizing her antique tea utensils. I do not know the purchase date or the number of times they were used. I am a tea ceremony novice, but I will answer any questions to the best of my ability. I would appreciate it if you would leave a comment. ※ Shipping method may change between Rakuraku Mercari and Yu-Yu Mercari. ※ Some recycled materials, such as cardboard boxes, may be used.
