Zohiko, 9th Generation, Hikoemon Nishimura This is an easy-to-hold tray called a "funagata" (boat shape) with raised edges on both sides. It's a convenient size for carrying meals or welcoming many guests. The box is a little dirty. It cannot be used for gifts. This is a new, unused item, but please understand that it has been stored at home for a long time before purchasing. Please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to this. I am also listing other Zohiko products, so I would be happy if you would consider them together.
