KAKUSEE Seiji(Blue Porcelain) Made Rice bran Pickle Maker Bowl 34-56-02 from Japan

This container is beautiful left sitting out on the counter and does a beautiful job of housing my nukadoko. I gave only four stars because the interior has a hairline crack in the bottom, and the small cup which goes inside to trap excess liquid has a hairline crack on the inside wall. I decided to keep it rather than return for a replacement because my expanding nukadoko needed a new home immediately! So far all is well in spite of cracks.
