Description from the seller

① Listing Title
Meiji-era Antique Ceramics: Set of 5 Lidded Tea Bowls with Wooden Box – Japanese Antique Art

② Product Description
This is a set of five antique Japanese lidded tea bowls, believed to date back to the Meiji era.

They feature a glaze ranging from a subdued brownish-tan to a yellowish-tan, offering a rustic yet deeply evocative aesthetic.

Each bowl comes with its own matching lid; the pieces are distinguished by their graceful, rounded forms and the natural, nuanced tones of the glaze.

As a complete set of five, these items offer a fascinating glimpse into the culinary culture and lifestyle of Japan during that period.

The accompanying wooden box bears old ink inscriptions. While these suggest the items are from the Meiji era, the exact date cannot be definitively confirmed.

This set will be of particular interest to collectors of antique Japanese ceramics, Meiji-era daily-use objects, or traditional Japanese antiques.
③ Condition
As these are antique items, they show signs of age, including soiling, scuffs, and minor scratches.

One of the five bowls has some minor scratches.

There are other signs of wear consistent with the passage of a long period of time.

Please appreciate these characteristics as part of the unique charm of an antique item.

Please examine the photographs carefully before making your purchase.
