This belonged to my grandmother and was kept at her home. It was stored in a wooden box. She used to practice the tea ceremony, so I think she received these as gifts upon her retirement or similar occasions. The names of the people involved are written on the back of the top of the wooden box, as a group. I believe it's a set consisting of a teapot and something to warm it. I'm not familiar with these items at all, so I apologize. Although unused, these items have been stored in a storage space for a long time, so please understand this before purchasing.
