Vintage Japanese Pottery Sake Bottle Kayoi-Tokkuri
This is a vintage Japanese ceramic sake bottle. It is called a Kayoi-Tokkuri and is used to pour sake. The commuting sake bottle became popular as a rental container for liquor stores in the Edo period when sake began to be consumed daily. Shiny dark brown glaze covers this bottle, and the unglazed part on the body makes a message and a male name. It has a brown string on the neck.
