The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A tokuri is a traditional Japanese vessel historically designed for serving sake, crafted from porcelain or earthenware in various geometric or bulbous forms.

Traditional tokuri are crafted from high-fired porcelain or stoneware, decorated using underglaze cobalt blue along with overglaze polychrome enamels and gilding.

Authentic pieces feature signs of hand-shaping, subtle irregularities in the glaze, hand-painted underglaze and overglaze details, and characteristic wear to unglazed base surfaces.

Display a tokuri as a singular accent piece on a bookshelf, styling console table, or open kitchen shelving to add historic Asian craftsmanship and texture.

Clean gently using lukewarm water and a mild non-abrasive detergent, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners, immersion of damaged areas, or automated dishwashers.
