Zelkova '欅' Soup Bowl | Isuke sho-ten '井助商店'
Wiping lacquer finish, in which lacquer is rubbed into the wood with a cloth to emphasise the grain of the wood.
The grain of the Zelkova wood is very beautifully expressed. You can enjoy the different grain expressions from various angles.
The shape is also carefully considered, with the lower part of the bowl slightly narrower than a normal soup bowl, giving it a stylish form.
Recommended as a simple, easy-to-use bowl for everyday use.
The lightness of the wood is also attractive.
