This round tray has been stored in a home closet for several decades.
It has been stored in its box for many years, so it is almost unused but cannot be considered new.
The box is heavily deteriorated due to age, so please consider it a bonus.

As this is an antique item with the image of traditional craftsmanship, those seeking new items are advised not to purchase.

This is a very atmospheric round tray with multiple layers of natural wood lacquer coating and a matte finish. According to the description, it can be used for everyday purposes, but it is likely more valuable as a decorative tray for display.

The original box and explanatory paper will be included.

The item will be shipped by wrapping the original box.




Thank you for viewing.
