Vintage Japanese Tetsubin iron kettle seikindo /pumpkin model yuzu skin

Vintage Japanese Tetsubin iron kettle seikindo /pumpkin model yuzu skin

The body was finished in a tasteful yuzu skin.

Chrysanthemum plucking on the base with floral pattern.
The lid is made of copper and has a marbled pattern. This is an old craftsman's technique.
It is a technique to make irregularly shaped purple patterns appear on the surface of copper vessels, and no two of these patterns appear the same.

Wonderfully decorated handles.
This decoration is another traditional Japanese technique. It is a technique of inlaying different materials into one material.
The curve of the handle is also beautiful. The handle is calculated for usability and beauty by an old craftsman.

A wonderful item.
I think it is very significant to inherit this item.
