Ink flows into the fine cracks on the surface, giving it a different look from previous tear jars. It was originally used in ancient Rome to hold tears of sadness. They were placed inside tears shed by wives thinking of their husbands going off to battle. However, they were also used to hold tears of joy. The adorable shape was modeled after vases fired in Arita from the early Imari period of the 1600s. Although small, this jar has a strong presence and can be used to beautifully decorate your daily life with a single flower picked from the field.
*Each piece has a different appearance, such as the way the crazing occurs and the way the ink is absorbed. Please refrain from returning or exchanging the product due to the difference in appearance or color of the product.
