In recent years, Banchen pottery has been gaining popularity in Japan.
This item is a Banchen pottery with a raised base with fine line engravings around the body.
The age and format of this type of pottery are still unknown, but pottery with intaglio patterns like this is said to have been made in the early Banchen period, around 1000 BC.
The base and body have been repaired, but the complete form is maintained.
