Vintage Japanese Koro Incense Burner 香炉釉 - 1990s Showa Era (25D-476-1)
Vintage Japanese Koroyuu Incense Burner 香炉釉 (SKU 25D-476-1)
Showa-era crackle-glazed koro with original signed kiri-wood tomobako
This compact Japanese incense burner presents a warm ivory glaze with a fine, all-over kannyu (crackle) pattern that catches the light beautifully. Its simple cylindrical form is understated yet refined, designed to harmonize quietly with a traditional tokonoma alcove or a modern interior.
Accompanied by its original signed kiribako (paulownia storage box) and maker’s paper insert, this Showa-era piece reflects the Kyoto studio’s commitment to classical forms and tea-ceremony sensibilities. Ideal as a vintage Japanese incense burner for soradaki (fragrant room incense) or as a small object of contemplation on a desk or shelf.

As part of our mission to preserve and share Japanese craftsmanship, we offer antiques that were made not just to be admired, but to be used. These pieces were crafted for everyday life, and we honor their purpose by ensuring they can continue to be enjoyed and lived with today.
We use professional studio lighting to highlight the natural character of the wood. As a result, the tone may appear slightly warmer than under natural daylight.
All vintage and antique items are sold as-is. Each piece may exhibit signs of age, including scratches, wear, or minor imperfections. These are not considered defects but natural evidence of the item’s authenticity and age.
