This is a set of a tea ceremony utensil, a "Nasu" (eggplant-shaped) tea caddy, and a "Rikyubai" fabric bag. Although it has been stored at home, the overall condition is good. The fabric bag has been used 2-3 times and has one small stain that is only noticeable upon close inspection (please check the last photo). The tea caddy itself has no noticeable scratches or chips and is unused. It is an eggplant-shaped tea caddy used for preparing thick tea in the tea ceremony. There is a handwritten notation "nasu" (eggplant) on the outside of the box (presumably for identification). There is no mention of the artist's name. Also, please note that there are some stains on the box due to aging. There is protective paper between the box and the product itself, so the product is not affected by the box's stains. The fabric bag has a calm luster and gives an elegant impression. It is recommended for tea ceremony practice or as interior decoration. Please check the condition in the photos and purchase if you understand that this is a used item. *Please note that due to my irregular work schedule, replies and shipping may be delayed. I will always contact you in advance in such cases. #teaceremonyutensils #nasuteacaddy #fabricbag #rikyubai #teaceremony #teaware #teacaddy #boxed #japanesetradition #chanoyu #satinlikegloss #forthicktea #japanesevintage #practice #antique #collection
