Thank you for viewing. I purchased this small soba choko, which is from around the mid-Edo period and features a Matsubara painting. I have kept it in storage since I bought it. I was told it was a serious piece with a well-balanced shape and form, so I bought it. The line on the inside, as seen in the 7th photo, can be felt with your finger. It is not a crack; it has been in this condition since I purchased it. There are no chips or cracks, and the condition is good. Would you like to use it, or perhaps add it to your collection? I purchased it for 10,000 yen for two. Please purchase only if you understand that this is an old item.
