Japanese Antique Copper Alloyr Tray / 1800-1900 / Gong / Wabi-Sabi Art

About the Item

I bought a very attractive copper tray. This is an item that was once used as a gong. In other words, it was used as a percussion instrument. It was also used in temples. The material is an alloy whose main component is copper, which is a mixture of lead and tin. There are the same ones in China and South Korea, but the design of the gong does not change much, so I decided that it was made in Japan. It seems to be quite old and the color has changed. I think it's an item from 1800 to 1900. After being used, it was diverted from its use as a gong to its use as a tray or pot. In Japan, such tools are often diverted to other uses. It has also been cracked and torn once. However, this tear has been repaired and a beautiful finish has been achieved. It did not leak even if I put water in it. A special storage wooden box is also included. It can also be used as a vase or as a confectionery container. It is a recommended item. Weight: 1.6 kg.
