Risada Wakao Shino Guinomi (Sake Cup) with Tomobako (Original Box) and Tomo-shiori (Certificate) #Fujii_Tableware This item was displayed in a Japanese-style room's cupboard for a period, but it has never been used as tableware. Therefore, it is listed as "Like New." Furthermore, as ceramics are art created by the blessings of nature and the effects of fire, there may be kiln variations, kiln marks, glaze effects, and fine cracks (nyu). Please enjoy these as the elegant charm that enhances the individuality of the vessel. I would like to sell this to someone who understands home storage and will cherish it.
