This is a large Yamanaka-nuri (lacquerware) soup bowl. We don't use this size at home, so I would be happy if someone could use it. The image is the size that sumo wrestlers eat chanko nabe (stew) in. Are you looking for a large bowl? The outer box has deteriorated badly, so I have disposed of it. The ladle is plastic and has a slightly cheap impression. There is a small area where the red lacquer is not completely applied. Please refer to image 17. Please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to imperfections. Please check the condition of the product in the images. Immediate purchase is welcome.
