Arabesque Barrel-Shaped Spice Container with Lid

This barrel-shaped spice container with an arabesque pattern is expertly crafted by Baizan Kiln, a renowned producer of Tobe ware. The design features rustic white porcelain beautifully complemented by blue motifs, making it ideal for serving condiments and pickles such as umeboshi, pickled plums.

The smooth, flowing curves of this rounded vessel offer visual serenity and a gentle touch, bringing a sense of calm warmth to the dining table.

Its thickness guarantees both durability and stability, while its lid ensures easy transportation and keeps food clean and hygienic. Additionally, the snug fit of the lid effectively prevents leaks.

The elegantly simple arabesque pattern is painted by hand using a special technique called tsuketate. This method involves drawing each design in a single brushstroke without outline, showcasing the dynamic flow of every stroke.
