I purchased this as a souvenir on a trip to Tohoku about 30 years ago, and my parents used it to hold tea snacks. I am listing it for sale since I haven't used it in recent years. It shows signs of use, but I don't see any noticeable damage in my opinion. Please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to this or if you are looking for a perfect item. Please forgive any oversights. Please read my profile before considering a purchase. I would appreciate it if you could promptly provide an acceptance evaluation.
