Description from the seller
Persimmon-shaped copper bowl 柿 (kaki) by Juki Studio 寿亀堂.
A shallow confectionery bowl in the form of a persimmon 柿 (kaki), its gently rounded outline tapering to a pointed end. An applied twig-like stem and broad, curling leaf extend from one side, the leaf resting across the rim. Incised veins, irregular perforations and a softly undulating edge lend the leaf a naturalistic appearance, while the cut end of the stem is detailed with concentric growth rings.
The copper body has a finely hammered exterior and a smooth interior, finished in warm reddish-brown tones. The leaf and calyx are picked out in contrasting ochre-brown patination.
The base bears an impressed seal reading ‘Juki’ 壽亀. Complete with the original signed and inscribed wooden storage box 共箱 (tomobako), identifying the piece as a copper persimmon-shaped confectionery bowl with a hammered finish, made by Juki.
Juki Studio, also known as Jukidô 寿亀堂, is a metalworking workshop in the Tsubame-Sanjo region of Niigata, specialising in copper and hammered copper utensils for tea ceremonies.
