Description

Vintage Japanese Mizusashi Water Pot (SKU 25D-180-3)

Heisei-era mizusashi with richly mottled glaze and lacquered lid

This vintage Japanese water pot, or mizusashi, presents a softly rounded form cloaked in a complex, mottled glaze of earthy browns, creams and mossy greens. The high-gloss surface catches the light beautifully, evoking the texture of lichen on stone and giving the piece a warm, organic presence ideal for the tearoom or a curated interior display.

Topped with a sleek black lacquered lid with ring handle, the pot balances rustic kiln effects with refined Heisei-era sensibility. Accompanied by its fitted wooden tomobako storage box and original inscription slip, it is well suited for use in Japanese tea ceremony or as an elegant vessel for fresh water, seasonal branches, or contemplative display.

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.
