Deep bowl featuring a blue swirl pattern and figures. - Design: Blue swirl pattern - Design: Figures and bamboo - Design: Figures and bamboo - Shape: Deep bowl - Color: White and blue contrast Thank you for viewing. A sturdy medium-sized bowl. It came out of the storage room. The Chinese figures are humorous. There is a chip on the foot. Overall, there is a sense of use, but it is also proof that it was actively used. My great-grandfather started a small inn from the mid-Meiji era, and this medium-sized bowl was used at that time. It is believed to be from the Taisho to early Showa periods. I heard that it was lively back then, with geishas coming to banquets. It was sleeping in the unopened storage room of my parents' house. Since it was actually used, there are scratches and chips. Please check the photos for any areas of concern. I am an amateur, so I may have overlooked something. Please understand.
