Most likely this was a small sauce dish for soy sauce. It could also be used as a kashizara. Kashizara were used as a dish to hold snacks (especially cakes), or small appetizers often used in chado (tea ceremony). It measures 4 1/2" in diameter by 1" tall (11.3 x 2.5 cm). Having been in storage for over a century, it remains in fine condition. A great size for serving something very special.
It came in an original set of 30 similar dishes protected in its original artist signed presentation box (not included) (see pictures 9 & 10). This listing is for one only of the original 30 hand made 1110 year old dishes. The remaining dishes will be seen in upcoming listings or can be made available upon request.
