Description from the seller
霊供膳
Ryoguzen is pronounced "ryoguzen" or "reiguzen" and refers to a meal offered at the Buddhist altar.
It is also called oroguzen, kuyozen, or butsuzenwan.
The reason for offering reiguzen is to show hospitality to the deceased and ancestors. Five bowls are filled with rice and food and offered to the Buddhist altar along with tea and chopsticks.
To be precise, the spirits of the ancestors and deceased enjoy the smell and steam of the food, and then we eat the food that has been taken down.
By sharing the same food, we can communicate with the spirits of the ancestors and deceased.
群雲塗
Cloud-like patterns are characteristic of this technique.
Size Bowls dia: 4.4-6.3cm
Chopisticks L15cm
Stand 16.7*16.7*8cm
