※ It appears white due to the light, but there are no scratches or stains. Thank you for looking! This is Echizen lacquerware. It has a history of over 300 years, and the 7th generation was a master craftsman who worked for the Imperial Household Agency and Eiheiji Temple. Size: Diameter approximately 14cm The color is a Japanese modern style candy dish in a silver-gray color. My family fell in love with it at an exhibition and bought it, but they haven't had a chance to use it, so it's for someone who likes it (^-^) I'm not familiar with lacquer, so I may not be able to answer specialized questions, sorry. Thank you for your understanding regarding home storage.
