From an internet search: The tools in the image are an Ittō Masu (ittō masu), which was used to measure the quantity of grains such as rice and wheat, and a Tokakibō (tokakibō / surikiribō) above it. Tool Overview * Ittō Masu: A large wooden tub used to measure "ittō" (approximately 18 liters), a unit of volume. The surface often has an inspection mark (brand) stamped on it to indicate accuracy, which is one of its characteristics that evokes a sense of history. * Tokakibō (Surikiribō): A special stick used to level the grains piled in the masu to accurately measure one ittō. * Current Uses In the past, it was used as a practical measuring instrument by farmers when packing harvested rice into straw bags, but it is now popular as an antique雑貨 (zakka - miscellaneous goods) due to its retro feel. * Interior: As an umbrella stand, or as a vase for displaying dried flowers. * Gardening: As a pot cover (wood barrel) for plants.
