Specialty. Korean tea bowls, old wells. Wasuremizu refers to water that flows ceaselessly in the middle of the field or in other places where it cannot be seen by the public. In the Shujika Shu (Anthology of Poetry and Poetry), there is a phrase, “Oshimizu tade nara de fuyoshimogana” (“Wasted water in the field of Asano, Sumiyoshi.”). The name “Oshui” may have been derived from the wretched appearance of a tea bowl. The tea bowl was also owned by Kobori Enshu, Tsuchiya Sagamimori, Matsudaira Iga, lord of Ueda Castle in Shinano Province, and later joined the Tokyo Akahoshi family, Sakamoto Kinya, and then the Nezu Kaichiro family in Tokyo. It is currently in the collection of the Nezu Museum.
