Chuko specialty. This is an old tea caddy by Fujishiro. The blue glaze dripping from the steamer edge is splashed with fine rain, giving it the appearance of a blue willow. The ground is black with gold glaze, and the cutters are made of spatula. It was originally owned by Hosokawa Echu-no-Mamoru and passed down through Tsuchiya Samon, Kutsuki Oki-mamoru, Itakura Ise-mamoru, and others, and disappeared for a while.
