Arita-yaki (Arita ware) Special Selection Ceramic Shinju Maru-gata Large Bowl Hakuhou Kiln Antique This is a very old item. It is likely from the 1970s, over 50 years old. Purchased at Takashimaya in Kyoto. I believe it has hardly been used. It is in beautiful condition with no scratches or stains. The coloring is also in truly beautiful condition, and I think it is a fine piece. The box has some writing on it, so please consider it as just a container.
