Unused Aizu-nuri Takefune-saku Maki-e Shunkei-nuri Soup Bowls, Set of 5. Natural Wood/Wood-Powder Composite Lacquerware.

【Product Description】
This is a set of 5 soup bowls featuring Aizu lacquerware, a traditional craft of Fukushima Prefecture.
As indicated by the Shunkei-nuri inscription on the original box (7th image), this is a superb piece with a beautiful, transparent amber gloss that highlights the natural wood grain.
The lids are inscribed with the Takehiko mark, and delicate yet gorgeous floral maki-e (lacquer decoration) is applied, exuding a calm elegance. These bowls are perfect not only for New Year's, celebrations, and entertaining guests, but also for adding a touch of luxury to your everyday dining table.
■Product Condition
• Unused, stored item.
• Opened for inspection and photography for this listing. The bowls themselves have no notable scratches or chips, and the lacquer gloss remains intact, making them in excellent condition.
• Due to long-term storage, there may be some dust accumulation. We recommend a light wash before use.
■Material and Features
These bowls are durably constructed (using wood powder mixed resin, etc.) and produce a crisp kan sound when tapped with a finger. They are more resistant to drying and cracking than 100% natural wood, making them suitable for everyday use without worry.
