The freshly applied lacquer is a deep amber color, but over time, it changes to a lighter amber color, allowing you to enjoy the aging process that highlights the wood grain. ◯ It is excellent as a practical item, suitable for daily use such as trays, flower vases, tiered boxes, and tea ceremony utensils. ◯ Due to its large size, there are wood cracks, gaps between the wood, scratches, lacquer peeling, and looseness. Recommended for those who like old items. ◯ It can hold about 2 sho (a unit of volume, approximately 3.6 liters) of cooked rice. ◯ There is a name written on the bottom. [Care Instructions] ◯ It is made of wood and not very durable. Please be careful as applying strong impact or dropping it may cause cracks. ◯ For light dirt, wash quickly with lukewarm water.
