This is from a collection that my family had. They're getting rid of it because they want other things. This is a soba choko (small bowl for soba noodles) from around the Edo period, featuring a pomegranate tree. The auspicious pomegranate is depicted, and the large size and use of negative space create a beautiful design. Although it's large, it's delicately made. The inside of the bowl has an elaborate design with a picture of a water bird. The size is approximately 8 cm in diameter and 6.5 cm in height. There are no cracks or chips, but there are a few very small imperfections in the glaze around the rim (see photos). The owner collected these for everyday use as soba choko, but they were never used, so please take them if you like them! Please check the condition carefully in the photos. If you have any questions about price negotiations or would like to purchase multiple items, please leave a comment.
