Antique Japanese Sake Bottle, Ceramic, Meiji Era (SKU 25S-716-2)

A vessel steeped in tradition, whispering tales of sake and celebration.

This exquisite antique Japanese sake bottle, known as a "tokkuri," hails from the Meiji era, a time when craftsmanship flourished in Japan. With its gracefully rounded form and elegant simplicity, this piece embodies the artistry and cultural significance of sake brewing. The prominent calligraphy, reading "酒商組合" (sake merchant association), reflects the communal spirit of sake production, where local merchants collaborated to share their craft and foster community bonds.

Made from high-quality ceramic, this tokkuri not only serves a functional purpose but also stands as a testament to the aesthetic values of its time. The careful application of glaze and the earthy tones evoke a sense of authenticity, while its sturdy form ensures durability. Ideal for both display and functional use, this sake bottle invites you to partake in the centuries-old tradition of enjoying sake, whether during a formal gathering or a quiet evening at home.
