Japanese tea ceremony utensil: Korean Karatsu single-lipped flower vase. With a matching box, inscription, and signature. The single-lipped vase is a formal flower vase used in the alcove of a tea room, and can also be used as a hanging flower vase. This piece is attractive for its flow of glaze and the texture of the firing, which are characteristic of Karatsu ware. This item has been stored unused. There are no noticeable chips or cracks. *The matching box has some scratches due to aging. Please check the condition in the photos. Highly recommended not only as a tea ceremony utensil, but also as an interior decoration for a Japanese-style space. We are looking forward to your comments!
