Thank you for viewing! This item features a painting of red bamboo and a haiku by Kaga no Chiyo: "Each wind blows out the leaves, this year's bamboo." It has a good thickness and I think it's easy to use. The inside is white with a beautiful gold rim. There are some areas where the gold paint is thin. The rough underside has some slight discoloration from storage. (Size) Diameter: 12cm Height: 6cm
