Japanese Katakuch Wood bowl / Mingei Wabisabi

About the Item

If you are looking for something special, we recommend buying items selected by BROOD. We sell a carefully selected range of old Japanese items. We have seen tens of thousands of items. Based on this experience, we only list carefully selected items. We can only do this because of our many years of experience. Some products on the 1stdibs website may look the same, but the products selected by Brood are unique. This is a wooden (zelkova) katakuchi konebachi. It is a solid, gouged-out kneading bowl from the early Showa period, and was actually used at a soba noodle restaurant. It has the texture of being used for many years and the unevenness of the process of splitting and piercing by hand. It is rare to have a one-sided mouth. It is thick, heavy and has an overwhelming presence when displayed. It is a perfect match for pin vintage and antiques. This chair has a uniquely Japanese design that you won't find overseas. Would you like to have it in your room? Hard to find in Japan. Recommended! Few shops in 1stdibs offer this kind of product. We sell them with confidence. We also keep our prices reasonable because we want many people to know how good antiques are.
