About the Item
This rustic, wooden container is an early 20th century rice measure, used to portion out servings of dry rice and other grains. In keeping with the larger rice measures used at market, the little tray has a square, tapered form with finger joinery at the corners and a finishing layer of dark lacquer. Time has imparted a wonderfully rich patina, with heavy crazing to the lacquer, faded edges and a few antique metal repairs.
