I purchased this from a shop that deals in antique items. I believe the shop, which is now closed, was called Minazuki, and they carried items with a good sense of style. It feels light in the hand. I believe it is a teacup with a beautiful form. The following is the description from the antique shop: "This piece is from around the Taisho to early Showa periods, and appears to be a replica of a Korean Joseon Dynasty soba tea bowl. There is a mark on the bottom, but the characters are unreadable." Although it was stated that there are no scratches or stains, there is an aged patina. * Please check the images. I believe it will appear beautiful to those who appreciate the taste and character of the piece. I have enjoyed it sufficiently, and I hope it will be passed on to the next person. * There is no box or other accessories, only the vessel itself, from the time of purchase. Diameter: Approximately 15.5cm Height: Approximately 6.5cm There are no accessories such as a box.
