● Description
This is a mizutsugi (water container) used in the Japanese tea ceremony.
This is a highly tasteful piece by the master craftsman Hosen of Kyoto Ware, featuring a meticulously hand-painted enameled design of shrimp, shells, and waves.
A mizutsugi is a tool used to add water to the kettle during a tea ceremony. It is suitable for tea gatherings and practice, as well as for display in the tokonoma (alcove) or for collection.
The original box is included, and the item is in good condition.
There are no cracks or chips, and the condition is suitable for both practical use and appreciation (please note minor scuffs due to age).
Mizutsugi made by Hosen are rarely available, and pieces with painted designs are particularly in high demand.
Recommended for those looking for tea ceremony utensils or Kyoto Ware collectors.
