Shigaraki Ware Mosquito Coil Holder, Watermelon Design, 9cm Tall, Made in Japan, MR-11-7207

Shigaraki ware is pottery crafted in Shigaraki Town, a mountain village in Koka City, Shiga Prefecture. It is one of Japan's Six Ancient Kilns and has a history spanning over 1,200 years. Designated a traditional craft by the national government in 1976 (Showa 51), it features a variety of shapes and expressions born from nature and artisans, and is imbued with the sincerity and playfulness of masters who value "imbalance." The "Hechimon" (registered trademark) comes from a Shigaraki artisan's word meaning "unusual objects." Spend the Japanese summer feeling the natural breeze... Enjoy energy conservation while also enjoying the nostalgic scent of mosquito coils. It is also elegant to use it as a flower vase or candle holder... Dimensions, color, and pattern may vary slightly due to the handmade nature of the product. This Shigaraki ware mosquito burner, known as the art of flame, boasts excellent heat resistance and retains the texture of the earth. The watermelon-shaped design makes it easy to place, as it hangs vertically. Fits standard mini and regular-sized mosquito coils.
