A large Fukube (a type of sake bottle) from Tsuboya ware. It has been displayed on a shelf for a long time, and although details such as the artist are unknown, I believe it is quite old. The part where the string passes through is in the shape of a lion's face (photos 7 and 8). There is a small chip on the spout (photo 11). In addition, there are two scratches on the bottom, which appear to have been made when it was taken out of the kiln (photos 12-15). The firing is good, and the flow of the Ogusuya glaze is also beautiful. ▼Approximate size Height excluding the mouth: 9cm (11cm including the mouth) Body width from end to end of the half-moon shape: 20.3cm ※Notice/Important Information I do not smoke, and I do not have any pets, so there are no particular odors. I will reuse cardboard boxes, newspapers, etc. that I have on hand for packing materials. #Mingei #Mingei #Yachimun #Tsuboya-yaki
