It achieved fame in the Edo period as a liquor store rental container. It was then that sake consumption increased significantly. Brewers would ship the sake to stores via wholesalers, and customers would buy it in this bottle. Inscriptions on the body can include the name of the liquor store, its location, and a trademark. The bottle says soy sauce, so it may have been used as a soy sauce container.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ewritten\u003c\/span\u003e Kanji words: 醤油 (Shoyu), Name Daimaru shoten,  Ninomachi town\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePottery, ceramic, yakimono \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eItem weight: 1638 grams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePacked weight: 2338 grams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC1900\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApprox. 14 cm wide x 27 cm tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGood condition.
