Kayoi Tokkuri Sake Bottle

$75.00

Smaller, antique Japanese sake bottle (tokkuri) from around the turn of the 20th century (Meiji Period). Hand-thrown stoneware, hand-painted with stylized calligraphic kanji. Sake shop owners would give a tokkuri to their customers when they bought sake. The name of the shop and its trademark were written on the vessel, to remind the customers where to re-fill it! The design is ergonomic for carrying, thus the name kayoi tokkuri (commuter tokkuri). The narrow neck also produces the “glug-glug” sound that lets you know its time to kick off your geta and relax.

23cm (9.5”) H x 12cm (4.5”) W. 1.1kg/2.45lbs
